Karan Johar turns 40

In an interview with Times of India, Karan Johar says, "In the last 15 years, I've just been going from one film set to another, busy making cinema I believe in or hosting my TV show. Honestly, there have been a lot of professional milestones. I wake up each day grateful for the fact that I'm in this industry. I laugh, cry and dream with my movies. I've enjoyed the fashion, the aesthetics, and the scale of the productions. However, my personal life has been zilch. I'm hoping to change that as I blow out the candles this year... sorry, I withdraw that statement! This birthday, there will be no cake or candles. I want nothing clichéd. Instead, I want the 40's to consume me."

Karan plans to bring in his 40th birthday with a bang and sources tell us it is one of the most eagerly awaited bashes of B-Town.
