Kangana Ranaut takes a jibe at Karan Johar, calls her episode "surgical strike"

Ahead of the premiere of Koffee With Karan season 7, actor Kangana Ranaut took a dig at filmmaker Karan Johar, calling the episode where she came in, a "surgical strike."

Sharing a screenshot of herself from the episode when she appeared on Karan's show, Kangana wrote on Instagram, “Papa jo is promoting all famous coffee episodes as it premieres on OTT today. Good luck to papa jo. But what about this episode? Oh sorry…surgical strike, ghar me ghus ke mara tha na (went inside his house and beat him up). My episode is his most popular episode and after he got banned on TV just like their Filmfare awards.”

Later, she shared a screenshot of an article that showed Karan saying that "nepotism has refused to leave him" and said, "I have made him more popular than all his work put together."

For the unversed, the Dhaakad actor came on Koffee With Karan's show in season five, while promoting her film Rangoon and called Karan Johar "the flagbearer of nepotism."

The first episode of Koffee With Karan season 7, which is all set to go the OTT way for the first time in its 17-year run, will witness Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt sharing the couch. The popular show premieres on Disney+ Hotstar from today, July 7. A new episode will drop every Thursday.
