Karan Johar Feels Responsible For Hardik Pandya- KL Rahul Suspension, Wants To Undo Damage

Perhaps, Hardik Pandya and KL Rahul would have never imagined that a talk show would affect their cricketing careers and lifestyle so badly. They have been suspended from playing any form of the cricket and also their case is currently pending in the supreme court, who will hear in the ongoing week to arrange an inquiry.

In the recently aired talk show named Koffee With Karan that has a huge fan base in India, Hardik Pandya has passed on sexist comments. Just after Hardik Pandya passing the comments, the people out there showed their anger on the social media causing outrage to Hardik Pandya. Eventually, it made an impact on his career alongside KL Rahul.

Meanwhile, the show host Karan Johar, who is a notable person in the Bollywood Film Industry quoted that he feels responsible for the youngsters. Karan also added that he couldn’t have slept for few days since the controversy was broke out.

I have had sleepless nights because of the controversy – Karan Johar

Further, Johar went on to add saying that both cricketers were his guests on the show and want to bear any consequence but, he admitted that it was out of his hands. However, he cleared that it was the questions, which he even ask female guests as well.

“I have to say that I feel very responsible because it was my show, it was my platform. I invited them as guests and so the ramifications and repercussion of the show are my responsibility,” the 46-year-old director, said, in a conversation with ET Now. “Have had so many so many sleepless nights, wondering about how I can undo this damage, who is going to listen to me. It’s now gone into a zone which is beyond my control.”

”I don’t defend myself when I say this, but I ask women the same questions too. I’m not justifying the conversation that happened on the show. I think perhaps things were said that have crossed boundaries, and I apologise because it was my platform where it happened. I feel the boys have paid the price for it already.”

Well, it seems like Karan Johar is pretty much concerned about the cricketers, whose careers are at stake. As he said, it is the time for the respective Indian board officials to leave the individuals by a warning.

However, it would be interesting to see how things would pan out. As of now, the quantum of punishment is yet to be revealed out by the respective Indian board. Currently, their case is in Supreme court, which will be heard in this week,
