Season of Koffee encapsulated
Yet another season of Koffee With Karan the most popular talk show hosted by Karan Johar on Star World came to an end.The third season was high on controversy and bare all conversations. All the industry's bigwigs joined Kjo over the coffee on his so called couch that's famous for making the guests switch on the best in them while fighting in the rapid faire round afterall the koffee hamper counts more than the filmfare awards and national awards. The first episode featured Junior B alongwith his always elegent and poised better half the very beautiful Aishwarya Rai. It was a graet experience to see the two of them together for the first time in an out and out talk show.A perfect opening for the season. Abhi-Aish make a great couple and and an even bigger brand so undoubtedly the show kickstarted with a bang. Viewers are going to miss Karan and his Koffee for sure every sunday at 9pm. Instantly the wait for the next season has started. In the second episode it was Ranbir Kapoor and Imran Khan's turn to taste the koffee and believe it or not even during the many re-runs this episode is going to make people laugh like anything. Ranbir-Imram the famous friends turned foes turned rivals showed so much love for each other that they even kissed each other in very much the Dostana climax.But the episode that set the tone of this season was the featuring Sonam Kapoor and Deepika Padukone, they not only had a great time with Karan but chose his couch to say that they always wanted to say about Ranbir Kapoor.Both the newbies giggled,bitched and made the episode garner awesome TRPs.The new year 2011 saw an altogether different side of SRK. For the first time in the history of Koffee with Karan SRK appeared as the solo guest. In all the episode of the previous seasons he came with friends from the film fraternity, this time around he was all alone in a candid conversation with his best friend Karan Johar though he joked that he is through with Karan and Adi but their chemistry on the show was kind of never seen before. SRK even made Karan shed some tears on the national television probably for the first time, the director par excellence famous for making viewers cry their heart out was himself in tears and certainly all those who saw had a lump in their throats.SRK was first time seemed a little vulnerable, the man who is undoubtedly the most wittiest person on planet earth showed a side of him that people had never seen. A memorable episode.
There were many stars who made their debut in the show. Ranveer Singh and Anushka Sharma were seen together.Karan failed to squeeze the truth out of them about whether they are dating each other or not. They are energetic,charming and certainly the flavour of the season.Bittoo and Shruti's chemistry is as irresistible off-screen as it is on-screen.
Some unexpected guests also graced this season with their presence. And Ajay Devgan was one of them.Rani Mukherji and Vidya Balan came together and very much like Ranbir-Imran they too showed affection for each other.No one Killed Jessica stars were witty and sensuous at the same time.Vidya sucked Rani's thumb in her inimitable style, they kissed as well.All in all a good watch. Madhuri Dixit and Sonakshi sinha featured together in an episode one an yesteryear queen and another an upcoming heart-throb.
Farhan Akhtar and Zoya Akhtar the completely contrast siblings on one hand Farhan was quiet on the show and on the other hand we had the chirpy Zoya. To watch the dynamic siblings was a real treat.
