KJo, Bhansali Break Ice!

The verbal war between ace directors Karan Johar and Sanjay Leela Bhansali that had ensued post the release of latter's Ranbir and Sonam starrer Saawariya, is widely known. The inception of this estrangement between the two was Johar making a joke about the movie being a "blue film", a remark that did not go down casually well with Bhansali; who went on to vent his anger via public media. Karan did not take it sitting down from there either, going on to say that anyone who uses media as a means of communicating, is not a friend of his and that Bhansali needs to lighten up a bit more!

More recently, the cold and hot vibes between these two leading men have begun to fade out. Ver recently, everything was put aside as KJo and Bhansali came together once again on the sets of popular reality show 'X-factor'. Karan, while praising the show for being the best talent show, also had only good words to say for the three judges - Shreya Ghoshal, Sonu Nigam and yes, the infamous foe, Bhansali. So generous was Karan in making up for the differences, that he pronounced Bhansali one of the greatest directors in the industry, and then gave the man a hug.

And so bygones were set to be bygones. The show proceeded with Karan announcing to give the winner a chance to sing for one of his upcoming films, and when host, Aditya Narayan, shared this news with the top 12 contestants, their excitement soared higher than ever.

Well, we say, there are plenty who could learn the lesson of 'making up' from these two in B-town today! Meanwhile, you be sure to catch the next episode of X-factor on Friday on Sony Entertainment Television!
