Was Karan Johar Romantically Involved With Late Sidharth Shukla?

MUMBAI: As more and more skeletons tumble out of the closets, it seems that Bollywood filmmaker and host Karan Johar was romantically and physically involved with the late actor Sidharth Shukla and the two could have been in a relationship for at least a couple of years during the time that Sidharth Shukla was doing the Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa Season 6 on Colors.

Sidharth and Johar are rumoured to have spent a hi-voltage, romantic holiday in Maldives, the photos of which have got leaked and are the subject of hushed discussion among media circles.

A vague post on social media, that doesn’t mention names and is basically  innuendo, but posted by a reputed senior journalist associated with several publications and media houses in the past, suggests that film-maker Karan Johar and late actor Sidharth Shukla enjoyed a romantic holiday in Maldives.

The post mentions that after the death of the “celeb” someone who has the photos of this private, hi-voltage, romantic holiday has been approached by a film magazine that is willing to pay really big bucks to buy the rights of those photos.

The journalist has also hinted that the filmmaker with “a penchant for new talent” has either matched or doubled the offer (of the magazine) to prevent the photos from getting published.

This implies that Sidharth Shukla was possibly bisexual and could have had a sexual liaison with Johar. The social media post and the comments below it, also allege that the filmmaker rewarded Sidharth Shukla with a small role in his film, but dumped him later on, as he got close to a female model.

The comments from others members and viewers below the social media post also mention that another actor Sidharth Malhotra was also given a role by Johar, but was later on dropped for future projects.

A similar experience was seen with Sidharth Shukla, who was initially signed on for three projects by Johar, but was given only one. ALSO READ: Sidharth Shukla did not die due to hearth attack?

All these allegations raise a big question mark over the real cause of Sidharth Shukla’s death and seriously dispute the narrative put out by the family that Sidharth Shukla died a natural death due to a sudden and massive heart attack.

The allegations leave us wondering if Sidharth Shukla was suffering from some ailments or sickness or was undergoing treatment for some secret and personal problems.

It also explains why the family did not want a post-mortem to be done on the mortal remains of the late actor. The actor’s BMW car had a smashed rear windscreen and it is not clear yet, as to how that happened.

The police have seized the BMW belonging to Sidharth Shukla, indicating that something transpired the night before he died, which his family is trying to probably hide.

According to an article on Tellychakkar.com, dated February 2014, which claims that many people don’t know that Sidharth Shukla is a charmer of sorts. His good looks and enchanting smile, made him a favourite not only among the fairer sex, but also among men, who tend to admire male beauty. ALSO READ: Was Sid Murdered?

The article goes on further to say, they are talking about Karan Johar who roped in Siddharth for a three film deal for his banner Dharma Productions in the year 2014. Siddharth and Karan bonded really well on the sets of Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa Season 6 on Colors, where the actor was a contestant and the director-producer a judge.

Their bonhomie became warmer, touching emotional chords of each other, and this friendship, got Siddharth a break in the world of Bollywood, the article claimed.

Sources in the film and Tv industry allege that Sidharth and Karan were a couple, however the duo never spoke about it in public.

However, once while praising Johar to the skies, Shukla had stated that Karan Johar was like Narendra Modi or God for him.
