Responding to a witty caller, Johar says, "Thanks for asking, but I didn't invite you in the eight seasons, so I have no plans to invite you in the ninth season either."

What did Karan Johar say about inviting cricketers?
Addressing the speculation surrounding the guest list, the 'Koffee with Karan' host clarifies another key point, stating, "No, no, no, cricketers haven't been invited. They aren't coming."
