Karan Johar jets off for holiday with kids Yash and Roohi
Mumbai, June 22
Filmmaker Karan Johar was spotted at Mumbai airport travelling with his children, Yash and Roohi.
On Monday, Karan was seen in a casual look as he made his way through the airport terminal with his children. In a video, the filmmaker is seen stepping out of his car while his children, Yash and Roohi, arrive in a separate vehicle.
He was also seen shielding them from the paparazzi as they entered the airport premises. For the outing, Karan opted for a tracksuit paired with shoes and completed his look with stylish sunglasses. He was also carrying a small bag and some files in his hand.
Meanwhile, his children Yash and Roohi were seen dressed stylishly as well. Yash wore a white jacket paired with jeans, while Roohi kept it casual in a T-shirt and trousers. It seems like they are heading out for a family vacation to an undisclosed location.
For the unversed, Karan Johar welcomed his twins, Yash and Roohi, via surrogacy in 2017. He co-parents his two children with his mother, Hiroo Johar.
Last year, on Father's Day, the director reflected on his journey as a single parent.
The 'Kuch Kuch Hota Hai' director had written, "My decision to be a single parent has been the single most emotionally satisfying decision I could have ever made... the answer to my every prayer to the universe...."
KJo added, "I was told to read books, listen to podcasts and to speak to other parents for help and guidance .. and while I truly appreciate all the good intentions of generous advice I feel each journey of a parent ( more so a single parent ) is truly unique and needs to be dealt with on your personal instinct... there are no rules for parenting there are just instincts that guide me everyday... I know I will falter, fumble and fall.... But the abundant love always makes me eventually rise.... Today I celebrate myself ... for completing my own half existence with the presence of my blessings Roohi and Yash... they filled a deep void and created some more space for love in my aura and heart... #happyfathersday."

Honestly, the whole surrogacy thing still feels a bit off to me, yaar. Not because it's wrong or anything, but because it feels like these celebs treat having kids like buying a car. That said, he does seem like a genuinely devoted father. Can't fault the man for wanting a family, I guess. 🤔
Uff, look at those kids! They are growing so fast! Remember when KJo first introduced them? And now they are all dressed up like little fashionistas. Karan is such a doting papa, always shielding them from the cameras. Hope they have a wonderful time wherever they are going! 💙
Priya S, you make a good point about single parenting in India. But let's not forget the privilege factor here. He has a massive support system – nannies, staff, his mother. For a regular Indian single parent, it's a completely different struggle. Still, it's a step forward for awareness, I guess.
That Father's Day post was so heartfelt, ya. It's refreshing to see a successful, rich man talking about his vulnerabilities and his journey as a single parent. It makes him more human. Wishing the whole family a very happy holiday! 🎉
A bit jealous, honestly! Who doesn't want to jet off on a holiday right now? But more power to him for taking the kids along and making memories. At the end of the day, it's about the kids having a good time with their father.
