Best Director Nominee
Karan Johar
In Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani, Karan Johar skillfully navigates the complex landscape of a culture clash between the Chatterjee and Randhawa families. Tackling societal issues such as patriarchy, gender stereotypes, body shaming, and cancel-culture, Johar blends the charm of golden-age Hindi cinema with contemporary values. The film unfolds as a family comedy-melodrama, delivering a rollercoaster of emotions, from humour to poignancy. Johar's directorial finesse shines through as he weaves an entertaining narrative that resonates with both nostalgia and new-age ethos.
