The much-awaited sequel to Student Of The Year pushed ahead?

Student Of The Year 2, a sequel to Karan Johar’s 2012 romantic college-drama Student Of The Year, has been in the news for so many months now. Toplined by Tiger Shroff, the film was expected to mount floors by the end of the year, but if the latest reports are to be believed, there is no possibility of that happening.

According to some industry insiders, Punit Malhotra, who has been entrusted with the responsibility of taking the film franchise forward, is not at all impressed with the script of the movie. To make it more interesting and youth-centric, he has sat down to rewrite the whole script again, which is going to take a lot of time.


That is not the only hurdle the film is facing right now. As we all know that SOTY 2 is a two heroine film, unlike the prequel which starred Varun Dhawan, Sidharth Malhotra and Alia Bhatt in their debut roles, but what we don’t know anything about is who will play the female roles in the sequel. Though several names like Jhanvi Kapoor, Sara Ali Khan, Disha Patni and Ananya Pandey have been doing the rounds since months, the makers have yet not disclosed the final names.

In this situation, the future of SOTY 2 does not seem very promising.

To be produced by Karan Johar, the film will be a Dharma Productions’ presentation.

Varma said films that set new standards are often sidelined by industry insiders who feel unable to match them. He said this was the case with “Dhurandhar”, which is set in Karachi’s Lyari town and directed by Aditya Dhar, known for “Uri: The Surgical Strike”.
