Highlights of Koffee With Karan Season 8
Needless to say, fans of KWK who saw the episode were in awe of the content, candidness and cuteness of DeepVeer. The conversation on the couch at that time was not limited to sex and bedroom actresses nor was it sleazy. It was raw and real and Karan Johar showed his vulnerable side. Deepika and Karan spoke about mental health.
Karan tears up seeing DeepVeer's unseen footage of the wedding
Karan was in tears seeing Deepika and Ranveer's wedding video. Kjo who is always a target for trolls has always been on the receiving end of haters, be it for his sartorial choices, talking style, sexual orientation and whatnot. The filmmaker was also accused by Kangana Ranaut on his show as a 'flagbearer of nepotism' and the ace filmmaker took every hate, comment and negativity and smiled through it. He even trolled himself many a time. But never has the audience seen Karan crying on-screen.
“I hope I have a story to tell. No, I hope I have a story to tell.”

"I am single...": Karan Johar
Karan said, "I'm not in a relationship. I am single. Looking at this (footage) makes me feel that what I'm losing on not being in one. Not being in one (cries).... You don't have a partner of your own to share... like the nothings of your day. And every day I wake up, a little part of me feels that vacuum. I have my kids and mom. But when I see this (wedding footage) and I see you (Deepika and Ranveer).... I know relationships are tough but that soul connection with a person with whom you can hold a hand and see your day through tough times... don't know if I ever had a moment on this show. I feel so happy for you two and yet so alone. I hope it (my life) manifests in a way that I have a story to tell."
