This would be the ‘Baaghi’ actor’s first collaboration with Karan Johar, for which he further added saying, “He (Karan) is the coolest person ever…There is so much to learn from him. You just observe him and listen and absorb things. There is so much value to what he says. I am looking forward to learning so many things by being in his film.”
‘Student of the Year’, a romantic drama was the launch vehicle of Varun Dhawan, Sidharth Malhotra and Alia Bhatt into this exciting world of cinema.
“It’s a youth centric film. I can’t give out the details about the premise of the film,” said Tiger regarding ‘SOTY 2’.
According to sources,Ā the film will have a fresh narrative and a brand new story. Not just this, the film will have two actresses this time, both of them being star kids.
