Karan Johar, Kartik Aaryan engage in epic face-off on IIFA stage

As much as it delivered a solid dose of entertainment, IIFA stage this time was also a platform to bury the hatchet, and work in collaboration.  Bollywood multi-hyphenate Karan Johar, and actor Kartik Aaryan, who were once at loggerheads, looked much more at ease, and in their elements on the IIFA stage, so what if they roasted each other in a rap battle? And hey, it’s not like Karan Johar is new to roasting.

A promo from the broadcast of the IIFA awards ceremony, which was held in Jaipur, shows the two gentlemen squaring off in a rap battle.

While the monotone beat for the rap battle was obnoxious, and the lyrical flow was ludicrous, the content of the rap battle more or less worked. Both KJo and Kartik called each other’s films out, particularly those which were massive commercial disasters born from the throes of passion and tall ambitions.

If KJo has ‘Kalank’ holding a dark spot in his filmography, Kartik has ‘Shehzada’, a remake of the Allu Arjun-starrer ‘Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo’, which snatched away his chance of officially reserving the title of ‘The crown prince of Bollywood’. While the battle got intense in the middle, eventually not just peace prevailed but it also threw the spotlight on their new collaboration ‘Tu Meri Main Tera, Main Tera Tu Meri’. (IANS)
