Karan Johar has paired many siblings in his latest season of Koffee With Karan. After Janhvi Kapoor and Arjun Kapoor, the latest to make it to the couch was Shahid Kapoor and Ishaan Khatter. While Shahid is almost a veteran, what with his fifth appearance on the show, Ishaan looked visibly nervous, and was often tongue-tied as he braved KJo’s intimidating questions. There were some interesting revelations made on the episode. Here are the highlights!
Shahid and His Exes
Shahid candidly spoke about “some” of his exes. We say this because KJo called him a “boy about town” and Shahid stayed super casual about that tag.
As opposed to other actors remaining tight-lipped about their personal lives, Shahid was more than happy to oblige Karan when he asked him about all his exes. Shahid spoke about recently bumping into Kareena Kapoor Khan, and congratulating Priyanka Chopra on her wedding to Nick Jonas. He also revealed that he’s not on “best terms” with any of his exes. Besides talking about how his relationship with Kareena was long term, while the one with Priyanka was shorter.
Ishaan’s Dating History Revealed
Not one, not two, but, according to conjecture, Ishaan has dated three women who were about to make their debut on the big screen. Karan quizzed Ishaan about his dating life, apparently the young actor has dated Sara Ali Khan, Tara Sutaria and is now dating Janhvi Kapoor. While the questions left Ishaan tongue-tied, big brother Shahid enjoyed the show from the sidelines.
Ishaan also called Janhvi “bae”, so that answered pretty much any doubts one had about his love life.
More Revelations
If KJo had a check-list, Ishaan kept ticking the boxes. Older woman - Check, Lap Dance - Check, Stalked an ex - Check, Bought lingerie for someone - Check.
We do appreciate the honesty, Ishaan.
Rapid Fire Round
Shahid Kapoor was in no mood to please anyone and answered every question thrown at him by Karan. When asked to choose who, according to him, is more talented between Priyanka and Kareena, he stated that Priyanka is more hardworking while Kareena is more talented. Preferred co-star between Ranveer Singh and Saif Ali Khan? “Saif Ali Khan,” said Shahid. Alia or Deepika, the co-star more fun to work with? “Alia,” said Shahid with a straight face.
Shahid’s Famous Flops
Shahid claims he has had more flop films in his glorious 15 year run than any other actor. The actor poked fun at some of his own film choices.
Lovin’ the candidness, Shahid.
