After a lukewarm season 5, which ended earlier this year, Karan Johar plans to open the next edition of his chat show with a bang, it seems. Reliable sources tell us that KJo is keen to record an episode of Koffee With Karan with pop icon Justin Bieber, who is visiting India for the first time as part of his Purpose world tour.

Filmmaker Karan has brought almost all Bollywood A-listers on his show, even getting warring actors to share the purple couch and spill secrets on national television.

Known as the desi Ellen DeGeneres, Karan is trying to woo Bieber to take some time out of his packed India schedule for a guest appearance on Koffee. A source privy to the discussion says, “Karan, who has hosted interactive chat sessions with international celebs like Richard Gere and Hugh Jackman, will unveil season 6 with Bieber if everything happens as per plan."
