Emraan Hashmi appeared on Koffee with Karan a decade ago but his answers on that rapid fire round continue to haunt his new interviews. Emraan has repeated many times that most of the things that he said on the show were in jest, and has expressed his regret over some of his statements, like equating actor Aishwarya Rai with plastic. In a new interview with Fever FM, Emraan said that he gave all those answers “just to give Bhatt saab a lesson.” Mahesh Bhatt was also a guest on that episode with Emraan.
“It was all for the hamper,” Emraan said with a laugh. He recalled that after his rapid fire, the team cut the shot and had a 10-minute discussion about it, wondering if they can even air it. “I did it and they cut the shot after the rapid fire and they had a discussion for 10 minutes, ‘Can we actually air this?’ But they said ‘yeah, lets go ahead and air this’.”
When the interviewer insinuated if he gave such feisty answers because he was younger, Emraan interrupted and said, “No, no. It was all in jest and it was all to win the hamper. I absolutely love and respect every person I kind of dissed out over there. It was to teach Bhatt saab a lesson. I mean he was so arrogant and cocky before that. He said that you don’t stand a chance in this rapid fire, said I’ll show you who’s boss and I just let it rip.”
When Emraan was asked if time has made him mellow, the actor insisted that he would give the same answers today. He said, “You ask me the same questions, I will give you the same answers. I’ll give you even more fierce answers. It’s just the interviews these days have become so… it’s become very controlled and its a lot of who is going to say what and what are they going to say on social media and let’s just keep it straight and safe. But if you steer to that wild side of me, it will flow. It’s still there, you just have to awaken it and I will just go for the kill.”
