Karan Johar's Devil Wears Prada moment
Karan took to Instagram to share pictures with Meryl and Anne and wrote a long caption to go with them.
"This is not a caption. This is a confession. I am singularly obsessed and inspired by the unmatchable brilliance of Meryl Streep. In many ways she has been my guru in the art of acting & portraying characters across cinema!! I have watched The Devil Wears Prada no less than 47 times. I have quoted it at dinner tables, in edit suites and in board meetings (no kidding!) So when I tell you that standing next to HER & them today, I felt the ground shift, please believe me. I tried very hard to be calm and composed but here’s a another confession - my knees were RATTLING!
“They were both so warm and welcoming. This image is going in my will. Stay tuned, there’s so much more…because I had a chat with the favourites of the season. OH and one more thing…that’s all,” he wrote.
Ananya Pandey left a heart-eyes emoji in the comments section of Karan's post. Neha Dhupia wrote, “Omg! I know I know I know …. What this means to you 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 this Is incredible…. This is what fashion n cinematic dreams are made of.”
Punit Malhotra joked, “Meryl Streep must have felt so good to meet the character she played.” Neeraj Ghaywan wrote, “Another bucket list item checked ✅”
