BH Style Icons 2023: Karan Johar has a ‘special’ association with the awards; calls his style journey “exhilarating and rewarding”

Over the years, filmmaker Karan Johar has become synonymous with style and fashion. Through his much-loved films and intrinsic style statements, Karan has gone on to inspire generations. It’s not surprising then that he has proved to be an undisputed and inspirational achiever, not just as a filmmaker but also because of his incomparable, peerless, and distinct sense of style. The inimitable touch of chic style that he brings into his professional as well as personal space makes him the ultimate “style icon” that nearly everyone yearns to be.

After all, how can one forget the branded fashion labels from Karan’s debut film Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (remember the ‘COOL’ chain or DKNY attires)? The film went on to inspire fans and several filmmakers alike. Later on too, Karan aced Western as well as Indian fashion trends, including the chiffon saree trend, a la his idol, late Yash Chopra. Karan’s characters, such as the iconic one, Poo (essayed by Kareena Kapoor Khan), also always put their best fashion foot forward.

Not just that, Karan himself has, over the years, proved to be a quintessential style icon with his pitch-perfect ensembles, super cool sunglasses, eye-catching footwear and, of course, his indomitable spirit. As Bollywood Hungama gears up to host the maiden ‘Bollywood Hungama Style Icons’ awards on March 24, we are thrilled to announce our association with the super-talented filmmaker Karan Johar. As Karan completes a glorious 25 years as a filmmaker with flying colours (after debuting with Kuch Kuch Hota Hai in 1998), Bollywood Hungama Style Icons awards are set to felicitate the multi-faceted personality for his blockbuster journey, with him being the “Special Focus” personality at this year’s edition of the awards. The idea is to put a special spotlight on style and fashion through the lens of Karan Johar’s films.

Speaking about his stint with inimitable fashion and style, Karan told us: “Fashion and style have been a passion and a hobby for me much more than an existing aesthetic industry. Incorporating and creating fashion and style trends through my 25-year journey in Hindi cinema has been both exhilarating and rewarding in equal measure. Pop culture invariably leads to relevance, and I am proud to be part of this movement through chiffons, silhouettes, hipster fashion, and athleisure. I am delighted to be acknowledged by Bollywood Hungama and look forward to the progression of this property (Bollywood Hungama Style Icons awards).”

A few months ago, we had announced that Bollywood Hungama was gearing up to host the first edition of the Bollywood Hungama Style Icons Awards 2023. Following this, we revealed the logo, the date, and venue, as well as the eminent jury members for the dazzling celebration of glitz, glamour, and entertainment, curated and directed by Cinema Waale Film and Television Productions LLP & produced by Across Media Solutions. Now, as we draw closer to the event date, it is our pleasure to announce our association with maverick filmmaker Karan Johar.

As for the awards, the maiden edition of the Bollywood Hungama Style Icons Awards shall take place on 24th March 2023 at J W Marriott Mumbai Juhu. Known for their innate sense of strong personality and intrinsic élan, the ‘Style Icons’ never fail to put their most stylish foot forward.
