Shanaya’s Bollywood Journey: Delays, But Not Denials
If you’re wondering about Shanaya Kapoor’s journey so far, it’s been a rollercoaster of news. Reportedly, her earlier project with Mohanlal, Vrushabha, faced delays due to technical constraints. But Director Nanda Kishore has clarified that the film isn’t shelved – it’s just postponed. Filming resumes in August 2024, with a Sankranti 2025 release on the cards.
And if you caught her mom, Maheep Kapoor, spilling the beans on Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives, you’d know that Shanaya’s big break didn’t quite go as planned. But no worries, because she’s got another movie lined up! She’ll be starring alongside Vikrant Massey in Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan.
The Legacy of the SOTY Franchise
The Student of the Year series is practically a Bollywood launchpad. The OG film (2012) gave us the sizzling trio of Alia Bhatt, Varun Dhawan, and Sidharth Malhotra, while Rishi Kapoor and Ronit Roy added gravitas to the youthful chaos. Directed by KJo himself, it was the perfect mix of romance, rivalry, and razzle-dazzle.
Fast forward to 2019, and SOTY 2 gave us a standalone sequel with Tiger Shroff, Ananya Panday, and Tara Sutaria serving sports drama and rom-com realness under Punit Malhotra’s direction. While the first film enjoyed a theatrical run, the third installment seems to be jumping straight into the OTT game.
Why Shanaya and Alaya F Are Perfect for SOTY 3
Shanaya Kapoor is no stranger to the spotlight. From her impeccable Instagram game to her undeniable Kapoor lineage, she’s got “it girl” written all over her. Meanwhile, Alaya F has already proven her acting chops in Jawaani Jaaneman and is fast becoming a fan favorite.
KJo’s Silence: Will We Get an Official Confirmation?
As of now, Karan Johar and Dharma Productions are keeping their lips sealed tight. No official announcement has been made about Student of the Year 3, but with this much buzz, it’s only a matter of time before the worthy details hit the gram.
