His statue will apparently be showcased in different countries, especially Asia, since the director seems to have a huge fan base in the continent. Johar announced the news on Twitter with a photo.

The filmmaker was most recently seen as a judge on India’s Next Superstars alongside director Rohit Shetty. Johar has also appeared in several movies in short but memorable role, latest being Welcome to New York. Johar recently announced his next film, Kalank, which stars Alia Bhatt, Varun Dhawan, Sanjay Dutt, Madhuri Dixit, Sonakshi Sinha and Aditya Roy Kapoor. The film releases on 19 April, 2019.
