‘Karan Johar made career-best film in Lust Stories’ with Kiara, Vicky: Vishal Bhardwaj
Lust Stories 3, the third anthology installment, is set to debut on Netflix India on September 18. The anthology, which has been nominated for an International Emmy Award, features four directors: Vikramaditya Motwane, Kiran Rao, Shakun Batra, and Vishal Bhardwaj. In an exclusive interview, the directors shared their favorite segment from the previous two editions of the anthology, resulting in a tie.
Karan Johar directed the first segment in Lust Stories 1, starring Kiara Advani and Vicky Kaushal, which focuses on a newly-married couple experiencing sexual dissatisfaction. Vishal Bhardwaj's segment in Lust Stories 3 also explores a similar theme, with Aditi Rao Hydari's character, a literature professor in Hyderabad during the late 1980s, resorting to reading and writing erotica due to her homeopathic doctor-husband's lack of sexual prowess.
Shakun Batra also selected Karan Johar's segment as his favorite Lust Stories film, praising its humor and animation style.
