"As good as the Guests.", 24 July 2008
Author: Herag Halli from Heraganahalli, India

Karan Johar has an-Illustrious lineage-his father,I.S.Johar,was ahead of his fellow actors. He had fluency in English and he was a great wit-so much so his Film-Fare Q&A's were sought after reading (now the mantle is handed over to Shotgun Sinha,) Karan has established his credentials as a reputable director with few off beat movies-probably the only one that has come close to Raj Kapoor as a Film-Maker (others in the list would be Bhansali and Gowariker.) Karan, even though is an Industry Insider, he does not use that information to his advantage. He manages to bring the best in a guest(like he did with Ramesh H,) but it was still excruciating to watch-nothing do with the Host.) He has few qualities that makes him successful as a Talk Show Host. He has gift-of-the-gab,a respect for his guest's sensibilities and good homework in the way of which combination of guest's make a good show--like the Kapoor Brothers--the show was the most entertaining--collectively they were great but I would't think individually they would be that entertaining. Karan has an ethusiasm of a school kid (the way he comes down the stairs-like he has been called down by this mother to play with other kids.) The show is entertaining since you will get a chance to see the side of an actor that you will never get to see-like Hema Malini for instance--she is naturally hilarious-with great sense of humor and she is beauty with brains and a treat to watch. The Coffea hamper has to go--why the secrecy.(it's a basket not a hamper.) Why not promote Brand name products? Does it have to be Koffee? The public opinion and the peer's opinion segment is well done. The rapid fire segment sometimes puts the guest in an awkward position and makes them to be too diplomatic and the segment gives a limited option,like who is the best of two Khan's, instead of who is the best actor today or best of the yester-year etc. This is a the only conflict I sense with the Host. Also the question gets to be mundane after a while. The older actors are never mentioned or interviewed. Either Karan and his staff has something to do with (or the older actors opt out on their own-for instance Dev Anand,Vijayantimala etc,)the selection? Suffice to say they have to cater to the audience which is mostly the same age range as the Host and I guess the Staff too. There was a void in a good Talk Show-only show was it's kind (Simi Agarwal) was bland and too emotional, but Karan has filled the void. The show is real fun (more fun than the recent Hindi Movies) and of course like any Talk show it is "As good as the Guests."
