Just imagine about a young man getting through many projects at the same time. Appositely, Karan Johar can be regarded as the best exemplification as he isn’t merely focused on his ‘My Name is Khan’. Of course, the filmmaker has taken more affinity towards ‘production of films’.
With his ‘Wake up Sid’ directed by his close-associate Ayan Mukherji ready to hit the screens on October 2, Karan Johar has already got three script works of ‘Dostana-2’, remake of ‘Agneepath’ and animation version of ‘Kuch Kuch Hota Hai’. As well an untitled film with Imran Khan and Sonam Kapoor in lead roles will soon start rolling (directed by his erstwhile assistants).
At the moment, the filmmaker is fast on the heels of completing the final schedules of ‘My Name is Khan’ starring Shah Rukh and Kajol in lead roles.
So, how Karan could manage more projects at a row? Ask him and he comes up with an interesting smart reply, “Since it’s not possible to concentrate on all projects at the same time. It’s better to just outsource - handover the power to talented ones and expect big results”.

Karan Johar all set to launch his own fashion line!
We already know him as the extraordinarily talented director, the producer, and the chat-show host, but what many people may not know is that our very own Karan Johar is a fashion designer as well!
Yep, you read right! Karan has indeed been designing clothes for Shahrukh Khan (honestly, is there anything else left for these two to do together?) for a couple of years now. Recently, the stylish formal suits as well as casual clothes we saw SRK wear on Kaun Banega Crorepati 3 were all Karan’s work.
When asked about it, KJo doesn’t divulge much but does admit that he is interested in launching a fashion label for both, men and women. Another interesting fact he adds is that he used to choreograph fashion shows in college and that’s one of the reasons why fashion comes so easily to him!
We will also be seeing Karan’s designs in Farah Khan’s forthcoming Om Shanti Om where he has designed a retro look and a modern day look for who else but Shahrukh Khan. Looks like this multi-talented personality is ready to take over the fashion world very very soon!
Any guesses as to what his fashion line would be called? ‘KJo’ sounds like a safe bet as of now but let’s wait for more news on this one!

Sonam Kapoor sheds designer wear for KJo’s ‘I Hate Love Stories’
Sonam Kapoor is facing a dilemma these days, but what exactly is it that’s troubling her? Well, the actress, who is known to have a penchant for expensive designer wears, has been ordered by Karan Johar to get rid of her designer gowns and get back to the basics- tees and denims, for the actress is starring in his new film ‘I Hate Love Stories’.According to reports, the film in question has Imran Khan along with Sonam Kapoor and will be directed by Puneet Malhotra.
“While Imran has a boyish image, Sonam has an international designer gown wali image. While it may have worked for her to get plush endorsement campaigns with international brands, she comes across too hip for the Indian masses. So Karan has asked her to lock away all designer gowns and start appearing in public in casual jeans and t-shirts,” says a source.
Sonam is apparently so keen on shopping that she has volunteered to go with Manish Malhotra (who will be designing her clothes for ‘I Hate Love Stories’) to shop for her wardrobe in the film.
