On Monday, filmmaker and producer Karan Johar was honoured with the Padma Shri in a ceremony held at Rashtrapati Bhavan in Delhi. After the event, Karan took to Instagram to share an emotional note. He also posted photos of the Manish Malhotra attire he wore and one picture of him with his mother Hiroo Johar.
"About last evening…. A truly memorable moment in my life….. I knew I would have made my father so proud and was so happy to have my mom there by my side…. My babies asked me “ dada you won a medal? “ and I replied “yes I did I hope you do too one day “!! The #padmashri … Humbled and honoured", Karan wrote.
Adnan Sami, Kangana Ranaut and Ekta Kapoor were also among the Padma Shri awardees.
