Today is dedicated to the real MVPs....: Karan Johar celebrates men who champion equality on International Men's day
A
s the world marks International Men's Day, filmmaker Karan Johar joined the celebrations in his own unique style.
The director took to Instagram to share a clip from his hit film 'Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani', starring Alia Bhatt and Ranveer Singh, which broke stereotypes about masculinity.
The clip featured Ranveer Singh's character, Rocky, dancing to the iconic song 'Dola Re Dola' alongside Alia Bhatt's on-screen father, played by Tota Roy Chowdhury.
Along with the post, Karan added a powerful message about the importance of supporting feminism and equality.
He wrote, " hunr kaa koii jeNddr nhiiN hotaa / hunar ka koi gender nahi hota (talent has no gender)Today is dedicated to the real MVPs of our society - the men. But not just any (and definitely not EVERY) man...today is for the men who champion feminism. The ones who uplift humanity by advocating equity, equality & a more compassionate society for women & for everyone who just dare to be their true self. So that can be on the stage dancing your heart to Dola Re channelling your inner Madhuri & Aishwarya or it could be on the field expressing your emotions and gratitude after hitting the ball out of the park with your bat. It could be anything. It could be everything. It could be the very step that makes our society the place that many will thrive to be the next MVPs. So do it. And don't hold back!!"
