Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], April 17 : Karan Johar has been turning heads with his noticeable weight loss in recent months. While many fans praised his transformation, some wondered if he had taken the help of medication. Now, Karan has finally cleared the air around speculations about his weight loss.
On Thursday, Johar went live on Instagram for a #AskKJo, just a day before the release of his highly anticipated film 'Kesari Chapter 2,' and spoke openly about the reason behind his slimmer look.

When asked by a fan how he lost so much weight, the director reportedly replied, "That's a lot of work, and it's not medication like the rumor suggests."
"I want to tell you I am in the pink of health. I've never felt happier, lighter on my feet. I've lost my weight the right way. I ideally wake up with a spring in my step, and I feel ready to work with new zest and zeal. So, yeah, I love it," he added.
Johar has been grabbing eyeballs since last year for his transformed physique. Weight-loss drugs like Ozempic have been in the news lately, especially after rumours surfaced on the internet about his drastic transformation, after his close friend, Maheep Kapoor, had criticised the use of such drugs on the Netflix show 'Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives.'
Earlier in March, during the IIFA event, Karan also spoke about his fitness journey and revealed that the drastic results were due to his healthy weight loss and diet choices. "It's about being healthy, eating well, exercising, and just doing your best to look good," said Johar while interacting with the media.

On the work front, Karan is all set for the release of Kesari Chapter 2, starring Akshay Kumar. The film will hit theatres on April 18. The film is directed by Karan Singh Tyagi and also stars Ananya Panday and R. Madhavan in crucial roles.
The first part of the film, Kesari, starred Parineeti Chopra and revolved around the valor of 21 Sikh soldiers in the 1897 battle.
