One person online even called Karan ‘nepo kid ka daijaan,’ making fun of him for always helping out the kids of famous people. They said he's like a caretaker for these industry kids. But Karan wasn't having it and told them to Chup kar.

His quick reply blew up online, and people are split about it. Some think it's good he's finally standing up to the haters, while others are bringing up the nepotism thing again, asking why he keeps supporting people who already have connections.
