Karan Johar during an Instagram Live session, on April 17, hinted at the arrival of a new season of Koffee With Karan, the most anticipated talk show in India.
Johar verified the hints further in the season and stated that the show will be back with its ninth season. A fan wrote, “Season 8 when?” to which Karan replied, “It’s not Season 8… it is actually Season 9… coming soon at a digital desktop near you.”
In the same session, Karan also shared insights on his weight loss journey, quoting that a good lifestyle, healthy eating habits, daily workouts, and mental well-being has changed his physical well-being from head to toe.
Koffee With Karan: What’s new this season?
In conversation with Sucharita Tyagi, he had previously discussed the newness in the upcoming season. The renowned rapid-fire round, a fan favorite from the start of the show, may not be revived. “It was so boring that I was like snooze alert,” Karan affirmed. “Main hi hamper ghar le jaata hoon,” he said on a lighter note.

The show would now concentrate more on real dialogue and less on placing celebrities in awkward positions, the director also noted. He admitted that today’s celebs are more reserved and don’t talk as openly as they formerly did. “I still feel Bhatt saab will be brutally honest, but I can’t even have him on the show anymore,” he said, in due reference to the Mahesh Bhatt’s famous episode with Emraan Hashmi.
Since its premiere in 2004, KWK has grown to become a pop cultural sensation, renowned for its iconic moments, glitzy guests, and spicily revealing content.
