'Bollywood should stop doing PR': Karan Johar urges actors to 'let their work speak for themselves'
Karan Johar has stirred conversation by calling out Bollywood’s growing dependence on PR. He criticised the heavy use of paid promotions, calling it “method marketing,” and said artists should focus more on their work than on curated image.
He added that “everything is available at a price,” making it hard to judge what is genuinely connecting and what is paid praise—even he sometimes pays for visibility.
