Karan Johar
Karan Johar, the director-turned-actor has been once again accused of his nepotism techniques to launch the star kids. Recently, when the news of Dostana 2 and its cast started doing rounds on the internet, Karan was blamed for launching star kids once again, and giving them break instead of giving a chance to the new talent. The director rubbished the rumours by tweeting, "Hello!!! All news circulating about DOSTANA 2 is untrue!!! Lots of speculation which is entirely baseless!!!" [sic]

While Karan usually avoids paying heed to naysayers, the filmmaker responded, "And you will win the Bronze for Bullshit! (sic)."
