Student of the Year could be Karan Johar's last film with younger actors

By Rohini Nadia


Like every other film he has sculpted into being, Karan Johar's upcoming Student of the Year packs loads of glamour, extravagance, song and dance routines. Starring newcomers Sidharth Malhotra, Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt, the movie's soundtrack has created quite the rage, particularly The Disco Song (Disco Deewane) with its signature dance-steps. And this certainly doesn't come as a surprise, given the fact that Karan Johar has roped in one Bollywood's most sought-after dance choreographers, Farah Khan, to call the shots!

Farah Khan and Karan Johar have shared a long-standing bond. The two have worked together on films like Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham..., and Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, all directed by Karan Johar. Farah Khan has also choreographed dances for films produced by Karan Johar, including Dostana and Kaal. For Student of the Year, Farah Khan has worked alongside Remo and Vaibhavi Merchant to choreograph the dance moves.

The director is particularly keen on judging a singing show. As said by Karan Johar, "One thing I would love to sit back and watch is a singing show, but I really think I would be the wrong person to judge a singing show. I can judge singing on a very surface level, but I don't have the right expertise to judge it."

As for his knowledge of Television shows and the like, Karan Johar credits his mother, who happens to be a huge fan of small-screen shows. "I will be lying if I say that I am a TV addict, but my mother is obsessed with Indian television and is very happy to see me as a part of these shows. She is a huge fan of Ram and Priya (of 'Bade Achche Lagte Hain'). But I have never been into TV," says Karan.

Karan Johar will pull the veil off his fifth directorial venture on the 19th of October. Titled "Student of the Year", the film will mark the director's first project without his lucky-star Shah Rukh Khan and will star three newcomers, Sidharth Malhotra, Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt.
