In 2019, seven years later, Johar came up with Student of the Year 2, directed by Puneet Malhotra. Johar launched Ananya Pandey and Tara Sutaria into Bollywood. Many must assume there might be no third installment of SOTY. Here comes Johar with the third installment after four years. The show is speculated to premiere on Disney + Hotstar and is in its scripting stage. The director for the film will be finalised by this month, and production will start shooting by the end of the year. 

In his last two films, Johar launched new faces to the audience, and he continues to follow this tradition. The show will cast Shanaya Kapoor as the lead. The casting process for additional actors for the show is now in progress.

Shanaya Kapoor has been anticipating her big-screen debut. The 23-year-old was originally set to make her acting debut in Bedhadak, Johar's love triangle, but the production was halted owing to writing concerns. Kapoor will be making her acting debut in the epic action film Vrushabha. However, Student of the Year 3 will also mark her debut on the OTT platform.
