On Sunday, Karan took to his Instagram to share a cute interaction with his daughter Roohi about Labubu dolls. In the video, Roohi is seen holding her Labubu doll close, as Karan jokingly questions her about the viral trend. “Roohi, do you really want to follow this trend?” he asks.

With her signature sass and confidence, the six-year-old shoots back, “It’s not a trend, it’s my friend.” Taken aback but amused, Karan replies, “Oh God, okay,” clearly realising there’s no winning this argument. He captioned the post: “Can’t argue with that can I?? #LabubuTakeover.”

Karan's latest project

Karan Johar is currently busy promoting his latest production Dhadak 2, which stars Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri. Karan opened up about the film and expressed pride in its powerful message. He revealed that the movie explores a socially relevant issue and reflects the harsh realities of contemporary society.

“It’s a story that makes you wake up and think,” Karan said, adding that the subject isn’t limited to small towns — it resonates everywhere. “These things take time. They can’t happen overnight. That’s why processes like censorship exist, and we have to respect them. It took time, but every good thing does.”
