If I say that filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri has emerged as the most debated filmmaker, you can already indicate that everything said by this man will create a lot of news.
He is highly regarded for his unwavering opinions on a range of topics, from social to artistic, in addition to his incredible cinematographic abilities. He routinely makes the news by criticising different public individuals and groups on social media.

Filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri has always been in the news, but this year has become a roller coaster ride for him. Starting by giving the year’s first blockbuster, The Kashmir Files, Vivek Agnihotri is one of those filmmakers who never hesitates to touch on some of the most sensitive topics in the country.
In the Post-Kashmir Files era, he gave lots of interviews and expressed his views more candidly. In this process, he occasionally took digs at award shows, reality shows, and so-called commercial celebrities of Bollywood.
And his most recent target is Karan Johar’s Koffee With Karan
The show recently ended its 7th season and, without a doubt, it creates so much noise for various reasons. As we all know, the show is known for revealing unknown facts about Bollywood superstars. However, many of the details are quite intimate and personal.
But we know that the show is notorious for this, and that’s why many people watched it and many celebrities also wanted to go on it. However, filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri has a different opinion than them. He recently revealed why he doesn’t go to the notorious show, unlike other celebrities.

Vivek Agnihotri trashed Karan Johar’s Koffee With Karan
A few days ago, filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri made fun of Karan Johar for his most recent fantasy epic, Brahmastra, which featured Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor. And now Vivek is once more going after Karan, this time for his talk show, Koffee with Karan.
When Vivek was recently asked if he’d like to be invited to it, the filmmaker ended up stating a few unfavourable things about the talk program. Vivek argued that he is a spiritual guy and that sex and gossip are not the focus of his life.
Vivek Agnihotri responded to Brut India’s inquiry regarding attending Koffee With Karan if he was ever invited, by saying,
“It depends. I mean, if the kind of show it is right now, definitely, I wouldn’t go because I have nothing to contribute. I mean, I cannot talk, I’m more than middle-aged now. I have two kids. So I’m not… Sex is not the primary concern of my life. And I’ll feel odd sitting over there because it’s so artificial.”
He added,
“I am talking to you as well, I can speak on any subject, be it sex or any other subject? We can do that, I have no problems. But that’s the only centre of… so… I am very spiritual, I am not a very sex-centred person, though I enjoy it with my wife. But I am not a … It’s not that my life revolves around only sex and who’s ditching who… and who’s sleeping around with who.”
He went on to say,
“I think it is a bulls**t programme also, because… what is it doing? Nobody relates with it, you’re doing it only for your inner circle, for your friends and just to make each other happy, and some channels are paying for it. And people can see that this is a problem, you know. So if people get upset with all these news anchors who are screaming unnecessarily, then I think the both of them are exchanging notes. There is no difference between them.”
One might say that Karan has often acknowledged that the programme is more of a guilty pleasure. Apart from Vivek Agnihotri, Taapsee Pannu had previously stated that her sex life was not intriguing enough to warrant an invitation to Karan Johar’s program.
