Director and producer Karan Johar finally broke his silence over rumours circulating about his new look. Karan has transformed his look within a small passage of time, letting people speculate that he had taken medications to lose weight. However, in his recent statement, he clarified that he had lost weight “the right way.”
In a live session on Instagram this Thursday, he informed that, unlike what rumours suggest, I have not used medicines to lose weight. He said that it took a lot of effort, and he feels at the peak of health. “ I’ve never felt happier, lighter on my feet. I’ve lost my weight the right way.”
He also stated that the reason he began the weight loss journey was because of the need to control his blood levels. He is currently following a diet that includes one meal a day, followed by exercise and swimming. Speculations about Karan’s weight loss began last year, around May, when a significant change was noticed in his appearance within a few weeks.
At the recent IIFA awards, he was questioned about the same, and he replied, saying that it is all because of a healthy diet and exercise. When asked about the daily routine, there have been no clues as the director denied any details, saying that it would mean sharing his secrets.
His quick weight loss has led to speculations that he used Ozempic, a drug used for controlling diabetes and is supposedly great for weight loss. Ozempic has been a trend in Hollywood with multiple celebrities claiming to be using it for weight loss. The obsession with a lean figure has become popular even in India, which has increased the usage of Ozempic here as well.
Talking about Karan Johar, he had previously also denied the use of Ozempic and in a post on social media said, “Being healthy and eating well and reinventing the wheel of your own nutrition! Aur Ozempic ko mile credit (And the credit goes to Ozempic)??”
