Karan Johar might be known for his skills of turning anything into a movie, but there is one thing that he would not want to touch. That happens to be the chats inside his WhatsApp groups. The filmmaker popularly has various WhatsApp groups where Bollywood celebrities turn critics, but the filmmaker draws a line when it comes to turning that into a movie. In fact, he would choose moving to London rather than turning those messages into a movie. Here's everything he said...

Karan Johar chooses moving to London over making a film on his WhatsApp group chats

Karan Johar was a guest on Barkha Dutt's podcast, and the filmmaker got an interesting question thrown at him - whether his WhatsApp chats can turn into a film. On hearing the request to turn his WhatsApp group messages into a movie, Karan Johar had a rather shocked expression. He questioned everything in life, as he contemplated the ask. The filmmaker's silence spoke loud, till he broke his silence to say, "If anyone ever got access to those WhatsApp groups about me and many of my friends from the fraternity, we'll have to move to London." He added that they would not be able to continue living in Mumbai, sharing, "There's complete honest, candid and sometimes very bitchy analysis of what's going on. We're fashion critics, we're movie critics, we're critics of everything on that group. Everyone has an opinion, and none of us can ever put those opinions out." He lets out a little laugh as he adds, "Unfortunately, that's our fundamental right - of freedom of speech - that we can only contain to our WhatsApp group and can never let it out. Those conversations are very private."
