After its fifth year celebrations, L’Officiel managed another coup: An exclusive cover and fashion spread with Karan Johar. Shot in Karan’s favourite city, New York, and styled in Lacoste’s Autumn-Winter collection, the cover story reveals another side of the multi-talented filmmaker.<BR><BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>Editor-in-Chief Superna R. Motwane initially sat down with Karan to discover more about the media-friendly celebrity, something that would help understand the man he is today, but the conversation over coffee that evening deviated from the set questions, revealing a story, a journey of an overweight child who nobody wanted to play with to a successful albeit lonely man who the entire world wants to be friends with. This is Karan Johar as you may have never seen him before. <BR><BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>On the experience of his first serious fashion shoot: <BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>“The shoot took me back about 25 years in my head, to an obnoxiously fat child, who never wanted to leave his house because he felt that wherever he went people would stare at him because he was fat. I don’t think people were as obsessed with my weight as much as I was in my head. The fact that I’ve been standing there with a make-up van and clothes…it was all very strange, but wonderful…. It’s something I’ll always remember.”<br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>
