TL;DR: Filmmaker Karan Johar calls out the “herd mentality” in Bollywood, warning against blindly copying box‑office trends like Pushpa, Chhaava, Stree etc., and urges creators to instead trust their own unique ideas 🎯✨ #OriginalityMatters #KaranJohar
🎥 KJo ki Baat – No More Copy‑Paste Cinema!
Hey fam, Karan Johar just dropped some bold truth bombs 🧨 about Bollywood following the herd. He said filmmakers are falling into a trap—once a film like Pushpa hits gold, suddenly 20 more people try to mimic it. Same thing happens after a hit like Chhaava or Stree—everybody chases horror‑comedy or historicals, instead of creating fresh stories 🎭 #HerdMentality #BoxOfficeCopycats
📈 Why This Trend Is Toxic
KJo explained that blockbusters like Stree or Chhaava soared because of their unique ideas—not the genre itself. Copying the vibe won’t give the same magic. In fact, he called it out as a major issue plaguing Bollywood right now 🤯 #UniqueCinema #TrendTrap .
🌌 No “Cinematic Universe” Obsession
When someone asked him about building a spy or cop universe, KJo was quick to say, “My universe is cinema itself.” He’s here to tell individual stories, not join the trend bandwagon. But hey, if a story naturally evolves into a universe, why not? 😉 #StoryFirst #CinemaUniverse
🎉 Cannes & Beyond
This all comes ahead of the premiere of his new production Homebound at Cannes, starring Ishaan Khatter, Janhvi Kapoor et al. A perfect example of him backing a distinctive tale through his Dharma banner ✨ #Cannes2025 #Homebound

✊ MediaFx Opinion
From a working‑class, socialist lens, Bollywood’s copy‑culture just strengthens capitalist profit‑drive while stifling creative workers—writers, directors, technicians. They lose space to breathe & innovate! We support equality in storytelling, not rich studio formula dominance. Let’s uplift truly original cinema, from the ground up 💪❤️ #CreativeFreedom #EquityInArt
🔚 Final Take
Time for Bollywood to break away from copy-paste obsession! KJo’s message is loud and clear: dare to be different, support original voices, and build genuine art — not cheap copies. You ready for a change? 👀
