Karan Johar REVEALS the real reason that made him quit Twitter

Besides being a film maker par excellence, we all know that Karan Johar is definitely someone who has been blessed with the gift of the gab. Testimony to this ‘gift’ is his longest running chat show ‘Koffee With Karan’, where he catches the celebrities off guard many a times, no matter how much they come prepared for the show. And with an intellect and presence of mind like that of Karan Johar, its always a given that people definitely want to read about what he has written on social media.

Speaking of social media, till about last mid last year, Karan Johar was seen sharing many posts (read ‘gems’) on social media, especially Twitter (now called as ‘X’). But, one fine day, much to everyone’s shock, Karan Johar decided to quit Twitter. But, before deleting his twitter account, he posted the message stating, ‘Making space for more positive energies only and this is step one towards that. Goodbye Twitter!

While many were left speculating about the real reason for Karan Johar quitting Twitter, he, recently revealed the reason for him to do so in an interview. In an interview with Mid Day, Karan Johar said that his decision to quit Twitter was an instinctive one that he had made when he started reading abuse to his children, which he considered the lowest that could happen. He added that, he was ok with anyone telling him or abusing him what they wanted, but they had even abused his mother, who is an elderly person.

He also added that, he was not going back to re-join Twitter, even though his company (Dharma Productions) is there on it. He added, even though he realises the importance of being on Twitter, he doesn’t want to to read anything about his children, as that breaks his heart not only as a parent, but also as a human being.
