This Is How Anushka Sharma Reacted When Karan Johar Admitted Having A Crush On Her During ADHM

Anushka Sharma, one of the leading actresses of Bollywood, has collaborated with top filmmakers, including Aditya Chopra, Anand L Rai, Karan Johar, etc. Their partnership reached new heights with the 2016 hit “Ae Dil Hai Mushkil”, directed and produced by Karan, starring Ranbir Kapoor and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan along with Anushka. While their professional chemistry is well-known, there’s an interesting revelation about Karan’s personal feelings during the shoot.

In a surprising moment from an old episode of the talk show Koffee With Karan (Season 8, Episode 5), Karan Johar admitted to having a secret crush on Anushka Sharma while they were working on “Ae Dil Hai Mushkil”. During a candid conversation on the show where Anushka shared the couch with Katrina Kaif, Karan openly confessed that he had a crush on Anushka.
This unexpected revelation left Anushka visibly stunned, with Katrina equally taken aback. Anushka, in disbelief, asked Karan if he just said that he had a crush on her. Karan confirmed his feelings, saying that yes he had a crush on her throughout the movie, surprising everyone in the room. Anushka graciously responded by saying that she is feeling really flattered.

“Ae Dil Hai Mushkil” is a 2016 romantic drama that delves into themes of unrequited love, friendship and heartbreak. Directed by Karan Johar under Dharma Productions, the film features Ranbir Kapoor as Ayan, a singer deeply in love with Anushka Sharma’s character named Alizeh who considers him only a friend. Aishwarya Rai Bachchan also plays a pivotal role as Saba, a poet who brings further emotional complexity to Ayan’s journey.
On the professional front, Anushka Sharma is set to appear in “Chakda ‘Xpress”. Currently, she resides in London with her husband and star cricketer Virat Kohli and their kids Vamika and Akaay.
