Taking to social media, Johar shared that he was starstruck after meeting Streep and Hathaway.
Taking to his Instagram handle, the filmmker shared a carousel of pictures with the Hollywood stars and wrote, “This is not a caption. This is a confession. I am singularly obsessed and inspired by the unmatchable brilliance of Meryl Streep. In many ways she has been my guru in the art of acting & portraying characters across cinema!! I have watched The Devil Wears Prada no less than 47 times. I have quoted it at dinner tables, in edit suites and in board meetings (no kidding!) So when I tell you that standing next to HER & them today, I felt the ground shift, please believe me. I tried very hard to be calm and composed but here’s a another confession – my knees were RATTLING!”
He added, “They were both so warm and welcoming. This image is going in my will. Stay tuned, there’s so much more…because I had a chat with the favourites of the season. OH and one more thing…that’s all.”
Several celebrities, including Ananya Panday and Neha Dhupia, reacted to his post in the comments section.
