In a recent interview with Bollywood Hungama, when he was asked whether Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh Khan would grace his show, Karan said, “Well, Aamir, yes. Shah Rukh, I think should really only explode at the time of Pathaan. So I know he is not doing much, not facing any media right now and that’s the best decision for him because when Pathaan does come, it’s going to be a tsunami at the box office. Shah Rukh Khan has kept people waiting and desired and the more they wait, the more they will really give back in terms of love, to I believe the biggest star of our country.”

While it seems like Aamir Khan will be on this season of the fun chat show, Shah Rukh Khan's appearance doesn't seem possible considering how much he wants to return in front of the media and fans when Pathaan promotions begin.

The new season of Koffee with Karan will see Samantha Ruth Prabhu, Akshay Kumar, Janhvi Kapoor, Sara Ali Khan, Kriti Sanon, Tiger Shroff, Shahid Kapoor, Kiara Advani, Ananya Panday, Vijay Deverakonda, Anil Kapoor, Varun Dhawan, Gauri Khan, Maheep Kapoor, Bhavana Pandey, Sidharth Malhotra, and Vicky Kaushal as guests.
