Weeks after the unfortunate incident, host of the show, Karan Johar has finally opened up about how he feels. In an interview with ET Now, Karan expressed his regret over the situation. He stated that he feels responsible for the two cricketers' fate and added that the situation was beyond his control.

He was quoted as saying, "I have to say that I feel very responsible because it was my show, it was my platform. I invited them as guests and so the ramifications and repercussion of the show are my responsibility. I have had so many so many sleepless nights, wondering about how I can undo this damage, who is going to listen to me. It's now gone into a zone which is beyond my control."

Karan also added that the show is run entirely by women and that none of them felt that the questions asked were inappropriate. The 46-year-old filmmaker expressed his remorse and said, "am just saying is that I think that perhaps things were said that may have crossed boundaries and I apologise because it was my platform from where it happened. I feel the boys have faced the price for it already.
