If there is one thing Karan Johar does best, that’s generating some serious buzz around the release of a movie! He did it with Student Of The Year, with Kesari and has done it again with Welcome To New York.
But there is something even more special about Welcome To New York that has Twitter going wild with speculation, even compared to all the other films out there. The Welcome To New York hashtag has shot up to the top of Twitter trends because Karan Johar is starring in it!
If you’re an avid Bollywood buff, you must be aware of the fact that this is not a regular occurrence because the last time few times he did venture out on the silver screen, it was for the ill fated Bombay Velvet, and before that, his first and only acting role was from Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge. So, you know Welcome To New York is going to be a big affair because not only Karan Johar, it stars Sonakshi Sinha, Diljit Dosanjh, Boman Irani, Lara Dutta Bhupathi, Riteish Deshmukh, Rana Daggubatti, and more!
That’s one hell of an ensemble cast. The gossip around Welcome To New York began as Karan Johar cleverly teased the Twitterati with this tweet.
And today, all the online goss is about a leaked conversation from a new film. #WelcomeToNewYork https://t.co/7gzbzzACxd@poojafilms @WizFilmsIN
