Tiger Shroff

Few months ago, Karan Johar had announced that he would be producing the sequel to his 2012 hit flick ‘Student Of The Year’ under Dharma Productions and it would star Tiger Shroff in the lead role. The sequel is to be helmed by Punit Malhotra who has previously directed films like ‘I Hate Luv Storys’ and ‘Gori Tere Pyar Mein’. Now, reports in Mid-Day suggest that the shooting of the movie is not going to start anytime soon. Apparently, director Punit Malhotra is unhappy with the current script and is rewriting major portions of the movie.

This reminds us of the time when Tarun Mansukhani did the same for the sequel of ‘Dostana’. Tarun who had helmed the first part starring Priyanka Chopra, John Abraham, Abhishek Bachchan and Bobby Deol had planned on a second part as well. But then, Karan Johar wasn’t quite pleased with the script and the movie was shelved altogether. Now, Tarun is helming a movie called ‘Drive’ that will star Sushant Singh Rajput and Jacqueline Fernandez in the lead roles.

So coming back to ‘Student Of The Year 2’, this would be Tiger’s first movie with no action. Also, it would be the first time that he would be working in a Dharma Production. There were rumours in the past that Sara Ali Khan, Ahana Pandey or his rumoured girlfriend Disha Patani were in the running for the leading lady, however, there was no confirmation on it. So, the leading lady is yet to be finalised. Let’s wait to know more on this front.
