Bollywood filmmaker and the biggest The Devil Wears Prada fanboy Karan Johar revealed he had the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to meet THE Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway.
The director met the duo as part of their The Devil Wears Prada 2 Tokyo promotions.
While the details of his chat with the divas are still under wraps, we hear that Karan Johar chose a special outfit for their meet. The filmmaker seemingly chose a floral outfit -- keeping the cherry blossoms in Tokyo and Japan in mind. We know, it is groundbreaking, but Queen Meryl Streep clearly approved of the look! We hear she complimented his look. A glimpse of his outfit was seen in the photos he shared on Instagram.

Karan Johar pens note on meeting Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway
Karan Johar captioned the post: "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!!"
He went on to chronicle how obsessed he is with the film, revealing its dialogues have become part of his daily vocabulary: "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!"
Praising both the actresses for their kindness, Karan wrote, "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"
