Karan Johar turns marriage
counsellor in New York
By Subhash K. Jha, Indo-Asian News Service
Mumbai, Sep 4 (IANS) Post "Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna" (KANK),
director Karan Johar has found a new job to keep himself
occupied - that of a marriage counsellor!
"I'm here in New York and doing a great job of advising Indian
couples on their marriages. 'Kabhi Alvida...' seems to have
triggered off this chain of doubts and revisions in the minds of
many couples. And they feel I'm in a position to advise them.
Lucky me, poor them," said Johar, who is holidaying in New York.
News is Johar has already started working on his next project.
Without going into too many details at the moment, it would be a
film that would again take him into the arena of mature human
relationships.

"That's the only way to go," asserted Johar.
"I've tasted blood. And okay, not everyone loved my effort to
probe the cult of marriages. But the response has encouraged me
to go beyond KANK the next time. But for now I'm in New York for
a richly deserved holiday," Johar told IANS.
Not New York again! Didn't he shot KANK there?
"Yes, I did. But it's one thing to shoot a film in a city. It's
another thing to holiday in the same city. When you're on
location, you can never enjoy the place. I am finally getting to
be in New York without looking at every landscape for a
potential shot."
In the second week of September, Johar will go to Canada to
attend the Toronto Film Festival where KANK will be screened
under the title "Never Say Goodbye" in the Gala Presentations
section.
The film stars Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan, Abhishek
Bachchan, Rani Mukerji and Preity Zinta.
"Amit-ji will also be joining me in Toronto from London (where
he's shooting for Balkrishnan's 'Cheeni Kam'). Should be loads
of fun."
