Salman, Karisma bring nostalgia to KWKS9
Koffee With Karan Season 9 opened with Salman Khan and Karisma Kapoor, bringing a generous dose of nostalgia, warmth and a few unexpected revelations. However, the premiere has left viewers divided over whether it delivered the signature gossip and glamour the chat show is known for.
The episode’s highlights included a montage celebrating Salman’s journey over the years and his surprising admission that he wants to have children someday. While these moments struck an emotional chord, his rapid-fire round was considered underwhelming by some viewers. Karan Johar‘s rapid-fire, on the other hand, received a much more enthusiastic response.
Social media reactions were split. Some viewers appreciated the episode for being warm, genuine and nostalgic, while others felt it lacked the spunk, flair and masala expected from KWK. One viewer summed up the sentiment neatly, calling it enjoyable nostalgia bait but potentially boring for longtime fans who tune in for the show’s trademark drama.
But for fans of Salman and Karisma, their chemistry was a highlight in itself. One viewer wrote, “I actually loved their pair and adored their on-screen chemistry! Sometimes I used to actually think that they both should ideally get married!” Salman’s joking reference to theirs as the “longest living affair” in the promo only fuelled those feelings, prompting the fan to add, “How I wish it wasn’t a joke!”
Ultimately, the premiere delivered nostalgia and genuine moments, but viewers remain divided over whether that was enough to make it a memorable Koffee With Karan opener.
