'Thank you for giving me the courage': Karan Johar remembers Yash Johar with emotional Fathers Day tribute
Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], June 15 (ANI): On Father's Day, filmmaker Karan Johar posted a deeply emotional social media post honouring the memory of his late father, Yash Johar. Accompanying a nostalgic black-and-white photograph of the two, which seems to have been taken on a film set, Karan shared a heartfelt message reflecting on the values and legacy passed down to him by his father. "He made films with soul and for the soul... and he lived life with even more," Karan wrote, adding, "He taught me that good storytelling begins with you... and your good heart. Thank you for giving me the courage to feel deeply. Thank you for giving me the courage to show these feelings on the biggest screens possible. Happy Father's Day papa, thank you... for you." Choreographer and filmmaker Farah Khan responded with a simple but powerful "Love him," while Maheep Kapoor expressed her affection through heart emojis, reflecting the widespread admiration Yash Johar continues to command within the film fraternity. Yash Johar, the founder of Dharma Productions, passed away in June 2004 after battling cancer, but his influence endures through Karan Johar's celebrated body of work, which includes iconic films such as 'Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham', 'My Name Is Khan', and, more recently, 'Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani'. Choreographer and filmmaker Farah Khan responded with "Love him," while Maheep Kapoor expressed her affection through heart emojis. In another post, Karan celebrated himself as being the father of his twins, Roohi and Yash. He shared a picture on Instagram posing with them and wrote, "Today I celebrate myself ... for completing my own half existence with the presence of my blessings Roohi and Yash... they filled a deep void and created some more space for love in my aura and heart..." Karan Johar became a father to Yash and Roohi in February 2017 via surrogacy. He named his son Yash after his late father, a renowned filmmaker, and chose the name Roohi as an anagram of his mother's name, Hiroo. (ANI)

Squid Game's Lee Jung-jae reveals when he will be able to say goodbye to his popular character Seong Gi-hun
Actor Lee Jung-Jae says he is yet to say goodbye to player number 456 or Seong Gi-hun of hit show Squid Game. The third and final season of Squid Game, the globally popular Netflix series, has wrapped production. Jung-Jae shot to international stardom with his performance as the perpetually down-on-his-luck yet kind-hearted Gi-hun in the first season of the smash hit Netflix series in 2021. He won a Primetime Emmy award and multiple other trophies for the show. (Also Read | Squid Game Season 3: Lee Jung-jae says he's 'very nervous' about fan reactions) Jung-Jae returned for the much-anticipated second season in 2024 and is now awaiting the release of the third season on June 27. 'We haven't released season three yet and we still don't know how the audiences are going to respond to season three, I haven't said goodbye to Gi-hun yet although we have wrapped production,' he said. "As an actor and as part of those that have created the show, I feel like seeing how the audience responds to it is also part of the journey. So when we get to do that, then I think I'll be ready to say goodbye," Jung-Jae told PTI in a virtual interview through the help of an interpreter. Squid Game, created by Hwang Dong-hyuk, revolves around a deadly contest where 456 players, all facing financial hardship, play a series of deadly children's games to win 45.6 billion won in prize money. At the end of the first season, Gi-hun won the prize money but instead of going back to his life, he set out to end the deadly games for good. The second season saw Gi-hun return to the games with a mission — to uncover the true identity of the mastermind. Whether he succeeds in his mission or not will be revealed in the upcoming third season. Jung-Jae, 52, a renowned face in the South Korean film and television industry with credits such as An Affair, Il Mare, The Housemaid, Hunt and drama series Chief of Staff, said while playing Gi-hun he was reminded of values people tend to overlook in daily life. 'The biggest lessons that I felt by portraying Gi-hun and also through Squid Game, is that there are so many things that we think we are aware of, but we tend to forget in life,' he added. "Some of them being the importance of understanding other people and genuinely helping others when they are in need. Squid Game is definitely a show that has given me the opportunity to reflect and look back on these important messages," he said. The actor said people often ask how similar he is to Gi-hun, and he believes they share many traits. "As I'm the actor who portrayed Gi-hun, my own interpretation of the character went into creating him. So we are quite similar," he said. Asked about the reason why Korean storytellers tend to tackle issues like inequality and the gap between rich and poor with nuance, Jung-Jae said it is not unusual as the Korean entertainment industry loves to explore a variety of themes. "And these themes are explored in a very free way through which a lot of different messages can be conveyed. I think that's the power that recent Korean content has. Whether it's a social message or political or even if it's about romance, when we explore a particular theme, we dive into it, really get to the heart of it all, and try to express it in as free a way as possible. That's what's unique about Korean content and also why it's so powerful these days," he said. Season three of Squid Game will also feature Lee Byung-hun, Wi Ha-joon, Im Si-wan, Park Sung-hoon, Kang Ha-neul, Park Gyu-young, Yang Dong-geun, Jo Yu-ri, Lee David, and Roh Jae-won.
