The atmosphere of India was forward moving urban looking back then. People wanted to be urban, rich, hard working, and sophisticated.
Then 2014 happened like a social nuke.
Everything became so rustic, gali-galauch and subalternistic. Now people want to be dehati, scheming and want to leech others through social justice.
Older episodes of Koffee with Karan used to be so much masala loaded.
Karan Johar really knows the game of making things viral.
Just pay a little attention to the questions he asks & i the style he asks.
