    Konterr Brilliant and touching
    Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
    Orla Zuniga It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
    Wyatt There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
    neelimajoseph93 I used to enjoy watching this show but by the latest season I am so done with it. He always invites the same people who he is comfortable with, who is in his friend circle..i mean come on there are so many talented people in this industry! where are all the directors and actors who actually make a difference but no just the same superstars again and again..and the same question to these same people every year-choose sharukh salman amir hrithik saif and kareeena katrina deepika priyanka.. please stop this. please. karan please find another way to keep yourself relevant.
    Catgurl22 When KWK started, it replaced Simi Garewal's talk show "Rendezvous with Simi". While that show was phenomenal, Johar did a good job of putting his own twist on the show with a little bit of humor and some interesting segments.However, the most recent season is just filth. His guests are mostly newcomers, millennials or flop actors/actresses. And all he is interested in is their sex lives. What do they do for sex? Are they virgins? How many times have they had sex? Who have they slept with? etc etc. It is no longer fit for the whole family to watch. It has become the "Two and a Half Men" of talk show - vulgar and unfunny.
    Herag Halli Karan Johar has an-Illustrious lineage-his father,I.S.Johar,was ahead of his fellow actors. He had fluency in English and he was a great wit-so much so his Film-Fare Q&A's were sought after reading (now the mantle is handed over to Shotgun Sinha,) Karan has established his credentials as a reputable director with few off beat movies-probably the only one that has come close to Raj Kapoor as a Film-Maker (others in the list would be Bhansali and Gowariker.) Karan, even though is an Industry Insider, he does not use that information to his advantage. He manages to bring the best in a guest(like he did with Ramesh H,) but it was still excruciating to watch-nothing do with the Host.) He has few qualities that makes him successful as a Talk Show Host. He has gift-of-the-gab,a respect for his guest's sensibilities and good homework in the way of which combination of guest's make a good show--like the Kapoor Brothers--the show was the most entertaining--collectively they were great but I would't think individually they would be that entertaining. Karan has an ethusiasm of a school kid (the way he comes down the stairs-like he has been called down by this mother to play with other kids.) The show is entertaining since you will get a chance to see the side of an actor that you will never get to see-like Hema Malini for instance--she is naturally hilarious-with great sense of humor and she is beauty with brains and a treat to watch. The Coffea hamper has to go--why the secrecy.(it's a basket not a hamper.) Why not promote Brand name products? Does it have to be Koffee? The public opinion and the peer's opinion segment is well done. The rapid fire segment sometimes puts the guest in an awkward position and makes them to be too diplomatic and the segment gives a limited option,like who is the best of two Khan's, instead of who is the best actor today or best of the yester-year etc. This is a the only conflict I sense with the Host. Also the question gets to be mundane after a while. The older actors are never mentioned or interviewed. Either Karan and his staff has something to do with (or the older actors opt out on their own-for instance Dev Anand,Vijayantimala etc,)the selection? Suffice to say they have to cater to the audience which is mostly the same age range as the Host and I guess the Staff too. There was a void in a good Talk Show-only show was it's kind (Simi Agarwal) was bland and too emotional, but Karan has filled the void. The show is real fun (more fun than the recent Hindi Movies) and of course like any Talk show it is "As good as the Guests."
    Dingataca Karan Johar hosts this show, and to be honest, it is hilarious. KWK is unique and very addictive, watch one, and you have to see the rest. I remember watching the first couple of episodes in the first season, I thought it would be pathetic and tacky (knowing Karan Johar's films). Boy, was I wrong...This show was made for Karan to host. His slightly feminine personality and talkative, chilled-out nature is the highlight of this show. I'm no big fan of his, but I think this show is better than his films. Hot gossip, facts from the stars themselves, who's dating who, what films are coming up...Karan asks them anything and everything! He can somehow get the stars to confess and blurt the "real stuff" out of them - which is sometimes controversial, and very funny (for the viewer I guess)! The rapid fire round is my personal favourite section of the show. It is great fun to watch, and often provides the best lines of the show.Thank you, KJo, for the best Bollywood gossip programme around.
