During the light-hearted banter, Shah Rukh Khan revealed that Karan is too confident about hosting IIFA, citing his previous experiences with anchor gigs and the Koffee With Karan show. So, the filmmaker declined the in-person rehearsal call and instead opted for Zoom rehearsals.

“Bhai main Zoom pe kar lunga... main itna jaldi karta hu. Main toh itna hosting karta hu na (I’ll do it on Zoom, I’m quite fast since I do a lot of hosting),” the Jawan actor shared.

Taking a jibe at this remark, SRK said that Karan should focus on making films rather than hosting gigs. He said, “Chat show bhi host karta hai, film show bhi host karta hai. Picture bhi toh , bana mere bhai tu (You host chat shows as well as film shows but should also make films).

The Koffee With Karan host reacted to this in a positive way as he agreed with what his friend and co-host said. He even shared that it feels a bit wrong on all levels for a filmmaker and that he should be focusing more on movies.
