Karan Johar reveals Rajamouli films don’t rely on ‘logic’ but ‘conviction’; says, “This holds true for all major blockbusters, including Animal, RRR and Gadar”

Filmmaker Karan Johar recently discussed the success factor behind blockbuster films in Indian Cinema and insisted that conviction played a bigger role than logic. The producer-director pointed out how superhits and mega blockbusters that have achieved immense success in the past few years rely more on the filmmaker’s conviction in his work rather than logic by making references to films like Animal, RRR, Gadar.

In an interaction with Komal Nahta, Karan Johar revealed how S.S. Rajamouli showcases his immense faith in his work over anything else and also held it true for Sandeep Reddy Vanga and Anil Sharma, who too have experienced massive response at the box office. Revealing how logic doesn’t play a role in these films, Karan said, “Take Rajamouli sir’s movies, for instance. Where can you spot logic? You can only see conviction in his films. When that conviction comes to the forefront, even the audience will believe you. This holds true for all major blockbusters, including Animal, RRR and Gadar. They were all driven by conviction. If a person is shown beating up 1,000 people with just a handpump, it’s because of conviction. Anil Sharma believes Sunny Deol can do that, and as a result, the audience believes it too. And in Gadar 2, the moment he touches someone, they run away. That’s pure faith”.

“More often than not, you end up doubting yourself, second-guessing the audience and thinking too much about logic. That won’t help you in any way,” the filmmaker added insisting that conviction is the key element common between all these films.

On the work front, Karan Johar has multiple productions in the pipeline under his banner Dharma Productions and Dharmatic Entertainment. The filmmaker is also expected to return to direction with an intense action drama, which he announced on his 50th birthday, a few years ago.
