On the International Women’s Day, on March 08 this year, Karan shared a very heartfelt message for Roohi. He wrote, “I was raised by a woman who had a strong mind, an independent mind and a solid soul. She taught me how to live a fearless life along with a strong sense of right and wrong! She also taught me the art of abandon! She made me the man I am, a man who is honoured to be raised by a woman of substance! Roohi my darling I hope I raise you to be just like your grandmother.”
Earlier, while talking to the PTI, Karan had shared his emotional state the first time he laid eyes on Yash and Roohi, “When I saw them for the first time, I didn't realise there were tears rolling down. I couldn't believe they were two big pieces of me who are staring at me, who are innocent, vulnerable. It was the most surreal overwhelming emotion I have ever experienced.”
On the professional front, Karan is producing Brahmastra, a fantastical trilogy starring Amitabh Bachchan, Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt.
