There is no denying the fact that Student Of The Year (2012) is one of the most successful film franchises of Bollywood. The first instalment of the series launched the careers of Alia Bhatt, Varun Dhawan and Sidharth Malhotra and today, the three of them are stars in their own right. Student Of The Year 2 (2019), the second instalment of the franchise, introduced debutantes Ananya Pandey and Tara Sutaria while also featuring Tiger Shroff as the male lead. Though SOTY 2 did not turn out to be as big a hit as the makers had thought, it did garner good numbers at the cash counter.
After the buzz created by SOTY 2, we hear that producer Karan Johar is considering to take the successful franchise on the digital platform. According to a report published on a leading entertainment website, KJo is planning the next instalment of the Student Of The Year franchise as a web series. He will produce it under Dharma Productions’ digital arm, Dharmatic Entertainment.
Meanwhile, Dharmatic Entertainment is currently busy working on the Kiara Advani starrer Guilty, which will release as a Netflix original. With the massive success of Kabir Singh (2019), Kiara has become the latest toast of B-town. The success of Kabir Singh all across India is definitely going to benefit Guilty in a big way.
Karan Johar, meanwhile, is busy with the pre-production work of his next directorial venture, Takht. The ensemble cast of the historical drama, which was announced last year, includes Ranveer Singh, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Vicky Kaushal, Alia Bhatt, Bhumi Pednekar, Janhvi Kapoor and Anil Kapoor among others. Set to begin production in early 2020, Takht is set to roll into theatres towards the end of the year.
