Director Karan Johar, in the recent episode of `Koffee with Karan 7` claims that actor Aamir Khan is responsible for losing the tonality in Hindi cinema that South cinema offers. In conversation with Aamir, the `Ae Dil Hai Mushkil` director said, "There`s been so much success that some of the South Industry films have offered us in terms of `Baahubali`, then `RRR`, `KGF`, and `Pushpa` and some of our films that haven`t been working. Is there a shift that`s happened in our movies recently in terms of like there`s a tonality that `KGF` has or `Pushpa` has that actually Hindi cinema used to have. We actually let go of it and you`re responsible for it."
Explaining the reason why he finds Aamir is responsible for all this, Karan said, "In the year 2001 you came up with two films `Dil Chahta Hai` and `Lagaan`, both had new sensibilities, both had a new syntax in cinema then after that you came up with a film `Rang De Basanti` in 2006, then you made `Taare Zameen Par` right after that, with the result you started making a certain audience and filmmakers."
