Nayanthara fans angry with Karan Johar – know why?

No Koffee With Karan episode is complete without a controversy or two and the latest one is not an exception either. The last episode of Koffee With Karan 7 featured superstars Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Akshay Kumar. Karan has once again landed in trouble in trouble after throwing a shade on Nayanthara.

In the hour-long episode, Samantha spoke about her life, career, and even divorce with actor Naga Chaitanya. However, one particular exchange she had with host Karan Johar hasn’t gone down too well with some fans.

Karan asked Samantha who she thought was the biggest female actor in the South is currently. Referring to her recent release Kaathuvaakula Rendu Kaadhal, the actor said, “Well, I just did a film with Nayanthara,” implying that she thinks Nayanthara is the biggest actor across the four film industries in south India. To this, Karan responded, “Well, not in my list!” He then went on to refer to a recent list, brought out by Ormax Media, of top female actors in the country which had Samantha as the number one female actor in the country.

Soon after the episode aired, fans of Nayanthara called out Karan Johar and flagged his comment as disrespectful. The exchange was shared on several social media platforms and several fans started commenting on it. “Because your list doesn’t deserve her sirrrr! She is lady superstar,” read a comment. Meanwhile, several Twitter users also praised Samantha Ruth Prabhu for giving a shout-out to Nayanthara.
