Karan Johar's 20 years in cinema
Filmmaker Karan Johar recently completed two illustrious decades in the film industry. The upcoming Indian Film Festival of Melbourne is all set to commemorate the director, and celebrate his 20 years of work.
The director will be flying down to the cultural melting pot to be part of the celebration of all Indian cinema, amidst the celebrations of his two decades in the film business. As a part of the schedule, the festival will host a special screening of his debut project Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, and will also be doing a special in-conversation with the director himself in the presence of hundreds of his fans from across Australia. The festival will take place from August 8 to 17 in the Victorian capital.
Speaking about the occasion, Karan says, “I’m excited to be celebrating this landmark year in my professional life at IFFM. It’s been a very rewarding 20 years of a journey and time well spent telling stories and having the freedom to be a storyteller. Filmmaking is my passion and the deep-rooted love I have for cinema and being here in this time to be completing two whole decades is very gratifying. I have been to the festival before, and I have loved being there. I’m looking forward to another opportunity to celebrate Indian cinema in the land down under.”
