Bollywood filmmaker Karan Johar, in a recent interview, said that he finds it disturbing that there’s a lack of information and awareness about sexual individuality.
In a recent interview to a leading news channel, Karan Johar spoke about how there are people who are gay but married (to someone else) because of society pressures, and also men who are scared to tell their parents.
Karan Johar reportedly said, “It is very disturbing as firstly there is no information on sexual individuality. I think the most important thing is when there is information and awareness, it leads to understanding it and then it leads to get you an emotion towards it. When you don’t have an understanding and awareness of what it is, how deeply rooted and emotional it is, well that’s how it is.”
“When a man loves a woman or a man loves a man, the level of intensity is not something that you are supposed to judge. It’s something you have to evolve with, it’s something you have to accept, and it is a part of the human DNA,” added the filmmaker.
While adding that the “Log kya kahenge (what will people say)” phenomenon has to end, he said that it does not matter what anybody says because eventually what they say will pass but your life stays.
"I don’t think I am not living in a way people will say or judge. So, I do what I like and I do what I love," he shared.
