Not every film-maker pushes new talent in the limelight. And that's just what separates the heir to Dharma Productions, Karan Johar from the rest. Having successfully directed four movies over the last decade, including Kuch Kuch Hota Hai in 1998, followed by Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham (2001), Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna (2006), and My Name Is Khan in 2010, Karan Johar has co-directed and produced films for several first-time directors. A few months ago, Karan Johar's latest production Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu was released, marking the directorial debut of Shakun Batra. Previously, Karan had debutant Karan Malhotra direct Agneepath, a retelling of the original released in 1990. The 2012 remake stars Hrithik Roshan, Priyanka Chopra and Sanjay Dutt. Karan Malhotra has also worked as an associate-director with Johar for the film My Name Is Khan.
A campus romance starring three newcomers, Siddharth Malhotra, Alia Bhatt and Varun Dhawan, the film will hit theater screens by the 19th of October. The film revolves around three students at a high-profile institution participating in a school competition. With Siddharth Malhotra starring as Abhimanyu Singh, Varun Dhawan as Rohan Nanda and Alia Bhatt as Shanaya Singhania, the film will also feature Ronit Roy, Rishi Kapoor and Ram Kapoor.
Karan Johar has introduced Tarun Mansukhani with Dostana (2008), with the sequel currently being planned. For the film Wake Up Sid (2009), Dharma Productions put debutant Ayan Mukerji on the director's seat. The Dharma Productions banner will soon unveil yet another film by its 11th new director, Akshay Roy who will call the shots for the upcoming Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani.
In the film, Kajol will be seen shaking a leg with Siddharth Malhotra and Varun Dhawan. Quoting Karan Johar, "Kajol is in the disco song and she has danced with the boys. Kajol's presence is very important for me. She has been there in every film of mine and she has always been lucky." The actress was reported to have quickly picked up the steps in just 15 minutes, inspiring the newcomers in the film with the flair for dancing.
Scheduled to release on the 19th of October, the film is a high-budget production also starring two more newcomers including Alia Bhatt (the daughter of director Mahesh Bhatt) and Varun Dhawan (the son of director David Dhawan). The movie revolves around the lives of three students at an affluent school in Dehradun who wind up competing against each other to win a school-title.
