Karan Johar recently slammed stalking and item numbers, including the ones that have appeared in his films. He admitted that he made a mistake and won’t do it again. Talking about stalking in Indian cinema, the filmmaker said, "When you show a man chasing a woman, it seems so passionate but it could amount to stalking. When you show a man being abusive to a woman, you think he is being angry but no, he is being wrong. Things you show on celluloid sometimes set a template. So we as filmmakers, need to be very responsible. Sometimes you don't realise but the things you write or project will actually impact society."
