Karan Johar, who became a father to twins Yash and Roohi, last February, said that his next film would relate to his 'excitement' of having his kids, reports news agency PTI. Karan has made blockbuster films like
Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham and his last release was
Ae Dil Hai Mushkil. "It's not that I will make parental film but there would be layers in my next film that would actually explicitly portray my humongous level of excitement for having Yash and Roohi," Karan Johar, 45, told PTI. Roohi and Yash were born via surrogacy in February but were brought home a month later due to their premature birth.
Karan Johar shared the first picture of Roohi and Yash on social media last week on the occasion of Raksha Bandhan. "6 months old today," he captioned his post, adding a heart emoticon.
Roohi is a rearrangement of his mother Hiroo's name while Yash is named after his late father, filmmaker Yash Johar.
Karan Johar is blessed to have Roohi and Yash in his life but says he's not going to be a 'hysterical, hyper parent,' he told IANS some months ago. "I am playing both mother and father in this dynamic, so I have a double role to play and for me, it's even more daunting. I have told myself that I am not going to be a hysterical, hyper parent because I see so many of them around me and specially leading actresses who become mothers. From leading actresses, they become paranoid parents," adding that they are the finest Dharma productions, 'literally and otherwise.'
