Guests are encouraged to speak their mind and make the answers 'rapid and full of fire'.

Rapid Fire: The segment includes a rapid-fire Q and A with Johar asking each guest a similar set of questions.

Specifically the rapid fire segment of the show has garnered the most notoriety, being dubbed 'infamous' for the statements made during the round which are often revealing. In what is called his 'trademark chatty manner', Johar is seen 'coaxing, cajoling them and grilling them' and it is indeed 'their confessions and revelations' that generate the most media attention. Most of his guests Johar considers his friends and he mentions that due to that relationship, he has to 'strike a balance between being over-cautious and over-friendly'. Its success is credited, in particular, to the fact that it is able to 'rope in some of biggest names in the Indian entertainment industry'. Koffee with Karan was noted for its uniqueness, especially that of Johar's style of hosting. The popularity prompted Star India to relaunch the show on Star One in 2005 and in later seasons, simulcast on it altogether. Originally targeted at the 15вЂ“34 years age group, the show found approval from outside that range of viewers. This meant that the talk show was the top Indian English language television show that year. Only Zee CafГ©'s syndication of Friends beat Koffee with Karan in ratings in 2005. The show quickly became popular, becoming the number one show for Star World India in 2005. I decided, might as well get paid for all the talking'. About hosting a television chat show, Johar says, 'I chat all the time, on the phone, at parties. ДЄccording to the producers, the concept of the show revolves around 'spilling the beans while having a hot cuppa.' They have stated that Johar is 'the brain behind the show' and that he 'sits on everything'. He declined the offer, stating 'I don't mind anchoring a show, but I'd rather it was a chat show.' The idea was pitched to the heads of Star India who, impressed with Johar's hosting skills at the first Zee Cine Awards, ordered the show without a pilot. The producers were involved with the Star Parivaar Awards in 2004 and approached Karan Johar about hosting the event. Koffee with Karan was produced by Fazila Allana and Kamna Nirula Menezes. Host Karan Johar was credited with naming the show.
