Karan Johar is back with the new batch of students with Student of the Year 2 or what they fondly call as SOTY 2. Tiger Shroff, Ananya Pandey and Tara Sutaria are these new students in St Theresa, the prestigious on-screen college. However, the memories of the then- debutantes: Alia Bhatt, Varun Dhawan, Sidharth Malhotra and Varun Dhawan are still fresh in the memories of the fans. The trio entered Bollywood together with this Dharma Productions film and now have established themselves pretty well. To hand over their 'Student' tag  to the next trio, they will be seen performing a special number in the sequel if we go by the DNA reports.

A source told the daily, "The film’s makers want to shoot the song, which will feature the trio in the opening credits, on a large canvas. They are yet to take a call on whether they should shoot in Delhi, Pune or Mumbai. It will be shot either in a stadium or on a lavish set. This song will mark the beginning of the sequel and will see SOTY’s lead actors, Varun, Alia and Sid, passing the baton to the new batch of students.”

Alia, Varun and Sid have gone a long route in the journey of Bollywood. In fact, Bhatt and Dhawan went on to do three films together and are still counting. Their pair became popular with SOTY and their chemistry helped them bag 'Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania', 'Badrinath Ki Dulhania' and now 'Kalank', all under Dharma banner. In fact, their one more film together 'Rannbhoomi' is also in talks. It will be fun to watch the evolved 'students' return to the starting line once again. Are you excited?
