Karan Johar, known for spearheading films like Dhadak and Homebound, highlights the unspoken and unsung narratives on and off the screen. In moments of doubt, many have felt the dusk take hold. In September, Johar posted on social media with the message “accept, adapt, move on,” followed by a range of lessons to carry forward. Today, many look up to him because his films have shaped our emotional quotient and shifted perspectives. He continues to inspire with his unfiltered perspective in conversations with Sania Mirza.
Age and appearances carry weight, and Johar’s mantra is to “adapt to your time.” In the era of social media, scrutiny is constant and pervasive. Johar notes that it has become a double-edged sword. He believes that adaptation to the current era is essential, yet acknowledges a dark, deep, ugly, and miserable aspect of social media: exposure to judgment from the entire universe—the entire digital realm. People seek to alter their appearance, weight, wardrobe, and responses to every comment. For individuals with low self-esteem or low morale, social media can be especially harsh. He points out that people scrutinize skin and bodies, and the level of judgment can be terrible.
“adapt to your time.”
“It has become a double-edged sword. I always believe that you have to adapt to your time. But there is a dark, deep, ugly, and miserable part of social media: you are open to judgment from the entire universe. By the entire digital universe.”
