Karan Johar adds a touch of entertainment with a pop quiz on art. While Neelam and Seema humorously admitted their lack of art knowledge, the group rejected writer Shobhaa De’s recent criticism. Addressing the same, Maheep shared, “A reputed columnist wrote something about us. I think it’s sad when one woman puts another woman down. But, I have to tell him who reads about him anymore? We’ve given three seasons and it seems like it’s already a blockbuster, so right now I think that’s old too (a comment made by Shobha). Seema also expressed the same views while Bhavana underlined that there is no “too” Shobhaa De is old.
