Says K Jo about Advani, who he once had a fallout with. And to prove it, he attended the mahurat of the filmmaker's next film, Patiala House
After their fallout five years ago and their subsequent patch-up Karan Johar and Nikhil Advani have come together again -- this time with Karan's best friend Shah Rukh Khan's archrival Akshay Kumar being present too -- at the mahurat of Nikhil and Akki's next film Patiala House on Monday.

Kya hua tha? |
After the release of Kal Ho Na Ho which was directed by Nikhil and produced by Karan Johar, the two had differences in opinion and had parted ways. They, in fact, weren't in talking terms for more than a year till Karan and Nikhil buried their differences and Karan did a cameo in Nikhil's Salaam-E-Ishq. Karan played a film director for Salman Khan and Priyanka Chopra's episode in the film. |
Karan meeting Akshay is a strange coincidence considering Akki is now the hero of Farah Khan's Tees Maar Khan -- something which Karan's best buddy Shah Rukh Khan and Farah had a fallout over. How was it bonding with Akshay?
Karan says irritatedly, "It was a happy atmosphere on the sets and meeting Akshay was as pleasant as always. People forget that I am very close to Tina (Akshay's wife Twinkle) and we have been childhood buddies who have grown up together.
Tina and I have a a childhood in common and also that my mom and her mom (Dimple) are extremely close too so Akshay's like part of the family."
Nikhil Advani says, "I asked Karan to give the clapper board shot and despite a very busy schedule (he's busy finalising his edit for My Name Is Khan) Karan came. For me, Karan's coming is a very important event for me and starts the film on a special note."
