Chahat’s song does not impress Karan Aujla

Karan Johar says it’s a ‘must watch’
One person said, ‘A person can sing in tune even by mistake, but here he did not even do that.’ One comment read, “Everything was fun until Karan Aujla commented.” “Toba Toba, you spoil my mood,” said one Instagram user. “You’ve ruined the song,” one person commented. Sharing the video on his Instagram Stories, Karan Johar wrote, “Must watch (red heart emoji).”
