Karan Johar reacts to allegations of hosting a ‘drug party’; says, “You can’t mar our reputations by presuming something”

Last month, filmmaker Karan Johar showcased a glimpse of his house party which was attended by several Bollywood A-listers like Vicky Kaushal, Ranbir Kapoor, Deepika Padukone, Shahid Kapoor, Varun Dhawan, Arjun Kapoor and Malaika Arora. This inside video of KJo’s star-studded party went viral within minutes and soon it led to an outrage in which an MLA accused KJo of hosting a ‘drug party’.

MLA Manjinder Sirsa had even requested Mumbai police to register an FIR against these Bollywood stars who were “flaunting their drugged state”. Now, Karan Johar has finally reacted to these allegations. Opening up about his house party, KJo told Rajeev Masand, “There were achieving members of the industry who were having an easy night out after a hard week of work, having a good time. I took that video with all the earnestness… would I be putting out that video if there was anything happening at all, I am not stupid.”

Here’s a post of MLA Sirsa tagging Karan’s video as “Udta Bollywood”.

The filmmaker went on to add that his mother was also at the party as it was a happy social gathering where everyone was having a good time. Karan also clearly stated that from next time onwards, if anyone makes such baseless accusations, he will take a legal route. He even added that as Vicky was recovering from dengue and he was having lemon water. And it was just a shadow of light that was perceived to be some kind of powder.

“The next time where baseless accusations arise, I will take the legal route. You cannot mar our solid reputations, our sincere reputations, our committed reputations just because you are presuming something. You cannot put out a baseless accusation that has no base, no fact, no truth, no reality and try and mar us and our reputations, it’s ridiculous,” said the ‘Kuch Kuch Hota Hai’ filmmaker.

Interestingly, none of the actors present at KJo’s party have reacted to these accusations yet.
