Jawaani Jaaneman  marks the Bollywood debut Alaya F , who is actress Pooja Bedi’s daughter. A  Hindustan Times  report says she has now landed a role in Dharma Productions’ Student of the Year 3, and the film will go on floors in Bangkok this summer.

Charting the story of an estranged father-daughter duo who come together after she hunts him down, Jawaani Jaaneman is directed by  Nitin Kakkar . The narrative follows a middle-aged man Jasswinder ‘Jazz’ Kapoor (Khan), who has not come to terms with his age and shirks at the mention of responsibility. His life takes a dramatic turn when Alaya’s character Tia finds him in an alley, and tells him there is a possibility he is her father. Tabu, Kumud Mishra, Kubra Sait, and Farida Jalal are also part of the cast.
