The much awaited Koffee with Karan Season 8 has finally returned and the first episode is already out. During the episode, the filmmaker and show host Karan Johar went on to share an incident where he had a depressive attack during NMACC launch.

KJo opened his heart and shared, “I think there were three tough years of the pandemic and there was trolling and I didn't realise that I was trying to be tough and resilient and brush things under the carpet.The legit attack I had was at the NMACC launch. I remember Varun was staring at me. I was sweating, I didn't even realise. He came to me, held my hand and asked ‘Are you okay?’ And my hands were shaking."

He further shared that Varun Dhawan took him to a room post which Karan did some breathing exercises and said that the actor  eventually thought that he(Karan) was getting a heart attack.

KJo continued, “I got out of my long and elaborate jacket and I left in half an hour. I just went to my bed and I wept. I just cried and I didn't know why I was crying.” 

Karan also recalled the time when Deepika Padukone got into similar condition back in 2017 and said that he couldn’t understand back then what she was going through until he himself got similar experience.
