SynopsisIt was the year of 1998 when we were introduced to the work of Karan Johar for the first time. Kuch Kuch Hota Hai became an instant blockbuster by making a place in the heart of all - young or old. It was fresh way of presenting Cinema. I fell in love with K2H2 immediately. It was a beautiful movie- full of excitement, fun, love and emotions coupled with fantastic music. --By Puneet Gautam on 23 January 2017
Loved it.. am big fan of Bollywood industrie. More than that I loved this book for kj's view about his own life , other people, situations and how he overcame tough situations in life. Very motivating and everything in this book has covered all the small things we would like to know and read, more than that he has shown all the guts to write the truth without hurting anyone in the industry. --By Sabah Hameed on 31 January 2017
So well written... If u are looking for voyeurism it's not the correct book.. There is, thankfully no gossip.. Nothing that you are as a regular reader not aware of.. What the book does do is give you an insight into a mindset of a person, and how he became what he is today. The ups and downs of his career.. His beliefs and ideology... It's a great read. It felt almost like a narrative.. And it's wonderful how u can connect bits of yourself with what he went through and how he does what he does. Nicely done! --By Sophia Rahim on 28 January 2017
