From a Candyfloss filmmaker to a serious director, Karan Johar is getting fairly versatile in his avatars. Post KANK he has been doing a lot of marriage counselling and now we
hear that the ace director all set to judge 56th Miss World contest on September 30.
It all happened when Miss World Organisation asked the Times of India group to name one filmmaker as judge for the event and they popped up Johars' name.
The director who is in Toronto for KANK screening says, "I'm flattered to have been chosen. Although I've been quite a regular as a judge at beauty contests in India, this is
my first brush with a global beauty pageant".
"I guess Indian cinema has gone global, and so have I. Suddenly we're being seen as part of a larger ground reality. I hope I can handle it," he laughs.
