Did you know there are at least 10 Karans on the small screen? AT presents a checklist
Koffee Time:
Be it films or television, 35-year-old Karan Johar rules the marquee in whichever medium he dabbles in. His inimitable style and wit has ensured that the who's who of the film and television fraternity vie for an invite to his signature talk show - 'Koffee with Karan' .
Pop Star:
A singer, before an actor and an anchor, the hunky Karan Oberoi is one of the 'Band of Boys' . These days, he's as much in the news for hosting 'Antakshari' as he is for his relationship with Mona 'Jassi' Singh.
Boy next door:
This young lad hit it big with Smriti Irani's production - Viruddh, where he has a strong role as Smriti's younger brother . Known to be her blue-eyed boy, Karan Mehra has also done a cameo in Abhishek Bachchan starrer Drona.
Heartthrob:
This 25-year-old chemical engineer from Bombay Institute of Technology has been a model and VJ before he made his small screen debut with the afternoon soap Saarthi. Now Karan Grover is turning heads in the prime time soap Meri Awaaz Ko Mil Gayi Roshni and is shaking a leg with Kavita Kaushik in Nach Baliye 3.
Budding hunk:
Fast becoming an Ekta Kapoor favourite, Karan Patel, who started out playing cameos in Kahaani Ghar Ghar Kii and Kasauti Zindagi Kay, is now essaying the male lead in Kasturi, where he plays a rock singer, complete with the attitude . There's been a buzz that love's blossomed on the sets of Kasturi with Karan spending a substantial part of his offscreen time with pretty co-star Amita Chandekar.
Dude with attitude:
Karan Singh Grover might have started off his television debut in a negative role in Kasauti Zindagi Kay, but a year later he's playing the male lead in the Sanjeevani sequel in Dil Mil Gaye.
Chocolate boy:
At 19, Karan Wahi's the youngest Karan on small screen. With his chocolate boy looks, this Delhiite became a heartthrob in the teenage soap Remix. He's also one of those few actors who's reportedly rejected an Ekta Kapoor soap!
Stardust in his eyes:
Karan Panthaky left tellyworld for tinselville. After feeling dissatisfied with his eight-month stint as Ansh in Saarthi, he's now concentrating on films and has even starred in the recently released Marigold. His upcoming projects include a music video.
Also there:
Tina Ambani's nephew Karan Shah broke hearts in the 1980 flick Jawani, followed by a disastrous filmi innings. Last seen as a small screen daddy in Jab Love Hua.
Fire band:
Karan Thapar remains one of the most well known names in the TV news category. Besides his skills in interviewing, he is known for his acerbic remarks and sharp questions on camera.
