Filmmaker Karan Johar has quashed rumours that his forthcoming
directorial "Student Of The Year" will release on the same date as
Shirish Kunder's "Joker".
"Farah
is a really dear friend and I would never come up with the film the
same day with her husband's film," the 39-year-old filmmaker said here
at Riteish-Genelia's pre-wedding party, thrown by Sajid Nadiadwala
Tuesday night. "Student Of The Year" is so far scheduled for release Aug
31.
Johar's new film features three new faces - Alia Bhatt
(Mahesh Bhatt's daughter), Varun Dhawan (David Dhawan's son) and
model-turned-actor Siddharth Malhotra. The filmmaker is upbeat about
launching the newcomers.
"I'm really excited about the three of
them. Siddharth Malhotra, Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt... all of them are
very talented. I will not say much about them. You should see for
yourself and base your opinion on what you see," he said.
"Student
of The Year" will see Johar return to direction after his 2010 film "My
Name Is Khan". The film is being co-produced by Shah Rukh Khan. For
now, Johar is keeping his fingers crossed for his latest production, the
remake of 1990 film "Agneepath", which will hit screens Thursday. The
film features Hrithik Roshan, Sanjay Dutt and Priyanka Chopra in key
roles.
