Karan Johar

It was the most prolific year for Karan Johar's Dharma Productions, which produced six movies with mixed results at the box office. The filmmaker, though, took a break as a director, except for one movie, and experimented with newcomers as directors for his movies. He produced one of the biggest blockbusters of the year, Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani, and co-produced the critically acclaimed The Lunchbox. Though he termed it 'extracurricular activity', Johar was visible on the small screen as the judge of a popular dance show and is back with a new season of his talk show Koffee with Karan.
Fast Fact: ?He was the only Indian apart from PM Manmohan Singh to be invited for the opening ceremony of the London Olympics.
