Ranaut wrote: “Audience can’t be fooled anymore. They have rejected atrocious and creatively poor films full of fake sets and over-the-top fake costumes. Who dresses like this in real life also where are tacky houses like these in Delhi?? What rubbish!!! Shame on Karan Johar for copying his own vintage work of the nineties… also how come he spent Rs 250 crore on this stupidity?? Who gives them this kind of money while real talent struggles to get funds!!!”
