Karan Johar has no qualms about having Kangana on his new TV show

Filmmaker Karan Johar says he will be happy to have actress Kangana Ranaut as a guest for his upcoming show India's Next Superstars.

Asked if Ranaut will make an appearance on the show, Johar said in a press conference on Friday, 5 January: "I am sure if Star Plus invites Kangana Ranaut, we will be very happy to have her. Our hearts are big, our home is open..."

The filmmaker added, "If we send an invite, we will welcome them with all due respect and love."

Ranaut had sparked the infamous nepotism debate by calling Johar a "flagbearer of nepotism" during her appearance on his chat show Koffee with Karan in 2017.

The filmmaker will be seen co-judging India's Next Superstar along with Rohit Shetty. 20 budding talents will be selected to compete, and two of them — a male and a female — will be given an opportunity to work with the ace filmmakers. The show will air from 13 January.
