Ranveer Singh's Hilarious Dodge of Karan Johar's 'Bads of Bollywood' Project: KJo Claims He Saved His Career!

Bollywood's beloved dynamic duo, Ranveer Singh and Karan Johar, recently had audiences in splits with their latest round of playful banter. The occasion? A segment on the intriguing show 'Bads of Bollywood,' where Johar, known for his wit and charm, light-heartedly called out Ranveer for what he perceived as a string of elaborate excuses to avoid collaborating on a new project.

During the engaging show, co-hosted by the ever-energetic Anil Kapoor, Karan Johar, with a twinkle in his eye, dramatically revealed his frustrations.

He claimed that despite his best efforts to rope in Ranveer for a particular segment, the actor was perpetually "unavailable." "Every time I've offered him to play a character, he has always had some excuse," Johar lamented playfully, painting a picture of a busy superstar perpetually just out of reach.

From scheduling conflicts to creative differences, the excuses, according to KJo, were endless and remarkably creative!

But the true highlight of their interaction came when Johar, in a move that only he could pull off, made a hilarious, yet surprisingly heartfelt, claim. "I actually feel I have actually saved his career many times," KJo quipped, sending waves of laughter through the audience.

This bold statement wasn't just baseless teasing; Johar proceeded to elaborate on his perspective, shedding light on the pivotal moments in Ranveer’s career where their paths intertwined.

He reminded everyone of the initial struggles Ranveer faced, the period where his career was still finding its footing.

KJo highlighted his significant role in recommending Ranveer for Zoya Akhtar's critically acclaimed and commercially successful film 'Gully Boy.' "He was struggling, I was like, Ranveer, you should do this film," Johar recounted, implying his nudge played a crucial role in securing the iconic role that solidified Ranveer's position as a versatile powerhouse.

Furthermore, Johar didn't shy away from pointing out their recent blockbuster collaboration, 'Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani,' a film that not only won hearts but also garnered critical acclaim for Ranveer's performance.

"And then I directed him in 'Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani' and look at his career now," KJo added, implying that his directorial guidance further propelled Ranveer's trajectory. It was a classic Karan Johar moment: a blend of self-deprecating humor, genuine affection, and a touch of professional pride.

Ranveer, for his part, took the playful accusations in stride, responding with his characteristic charm and enthusiasm.

"I'm always ready to play any character, Karan," he asserted, a subtle nod to his willingness to experiment and embrace diverse roles, even if it means playfully dodging a few of KJo's 'Bads of Bollywood' proposals along the way. Their exchange wasn't just a candid moment; it was a testament to the strong bond and mutual respect shared between the actor and the filmmaker, a relationship built on collaboration, mentorship, and a generous dose of good-natured teasing.
