Filmmaker-producer Karan Johar recently shared his disappointment after witnessing comedian Kettan Singh바카라™s mimicry act of him while watching television with his mother. KJo pointed out the lack of respect from within the industry.

Karan took to Instagram stories on Sunday to express how he feels sadness rather than anger while hinting at Kettan바카라™s portrayal of him in the promo for the new comedy show 바카라˜Madness Machayenge 바카라“ India Ko Hasayenge바카라™. Karan did not take the channel or the comedian바카라™s name, but labelled the act as being in 바카라œpoor taste.바카라

He wrote, 바카라œI was sitting and watching television with my mom바카라Š and saw a promo of a reality comedy show on a supposedly respectable channel바카라Š a comic was mimicking me in exceptionally poor taste바카라Š I expect this from trolls and faceless and nameless people but when your own industry can disrespect someone who has been in the business for over 25 years it speaks volumes about the times we live in바카라Š this doesn바카라™t even anger me it just makes me sad!바카라

In response to Karan lashing out at the act on Instagram, Kettan has now issued a heartfelt apology to him. He told Times Now that he would like to apologise to 바카라œKaran (Johar) sir바카라 and is a huge fan of his work. Kettan was quoted as saying, 바카라œFirst of all, whatever impersonation I do because I watch a lot of Karan Johar on the coffee show, I am a fan of his work. I have seen his latest film, Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani 5 to 6 times. I am a huge fan of his work and his show. If my actions hurt him, I would like to apologise to him. My intention was not to hurt him. I just wanted to entertain the audience but if I did something extra, I would like to say sorry to him.바카라

He further mentioned that since he has not seen the full episode, he would now understand the reactions of both the audience and Johar post viewing it. Kettan said, 바카라œI haven바카라™t watched the episode. Sir has reacted to the promo. I haven바카라™t seen the episode. I would like to see the reactions of people and Karan sir after watching the episode. I don바카라™t want to offend, sir. Many artists don바카라™t mimic Karan sir. I used to do it a couple of years ago on The Kapil Sharma Show. I did it for the first time on Madness Machayenge. Apart from my apology, I am not thinking of anything else.바카라

On the professional front, Karan Johar last helmed 바카라˜Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani바카라™, starring Alia Bhatt and Ranveer Singh.
