While fans reacted with surprise, the announcement also reopened the meme factory.

Here's how Twitter users reacted to Karan Johar's tweet.

Despite the goodbye tweet, several Twitter users are skeptical if Karan Johar has really quit Twitter. In a similar announcement, he had earlier tweeted that his flagship chat show Koffee with Karan will not be returning for season 7 only to reveal later that the new season will not be returning on television but would be streamed on on Disney+ Hotstar.

The filmmaker has been facing severe backlash on Twitter after actor Sushant Singh Rajput's death and after actor Kangana Ranaut spoke up against him. Years after Rajput's suicide, Karan Johar continues to be trolled on the micro-blogging site.

He is, however, still active on Instagram.
