Mumbai, March 17 (NationPress) While the IIFA stage provided a robust dose of entertainment, it also served as a venue for reconciliation and collaboration.

The versatile Bollywood figure Karan Johar and actor Kartik Aaryan, who previously had a strained relationship, appeared much more relaxed and in their element during the IIFA event, engaging in a humorous rap battle.

A teaser from the broadcast of the IIFA awards, hosted in Jaipur, showcases these two stars going head-to-head in a rap showdown.

Although the monotonous beat of the rap battle was somewhat irritating and the lyrical delivery was questionable, the essence of the rap duel was entertaining. Both KJo and Kartik took jabs at each other’s films, particularly those that were significant box office flops stemming from high aspirations.

On one hand, KJo has 'Kalank' casting a shadow over his career, while Kartik has 'Shehzada', a remake of the Allu Arjun film 'Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo', which hindered his opportunity to officially claim the title of 'The Crown Prince of Bollywood'. Despite the heated exchanges, peace ultimately prevailed, shining the spotlight on their upcoming collaboration 'Tu Meri Main Tera, Main Tera Tu Meri'.

This film was announced in December of last year and has generated buzz as it marks a crucial point in the partnership between Karan Johar and Kartik Aaryan, following a previously planned project that fell through.

The fallout between Kartik and Karan became one of the most discussed controversies in the industry, especially after the much-anticipated film 'Dostana 2' was shelved. However, after some time apart, the two have chosen to reconcile and work together on this new venture.
