Malhotra has helmed movies like Gori Tere Pyaar Mein and I Hate Luv Storys, which makes him somewhat familiar to the rom-com genre, that SOTY 2 will probably fall under. The first SOTY film marked the Bollywood debut of Alia Bhatt, Varun Dhawan and Sidharth Malhotra, who have now become one of the most sought-after stars. There is no official word on who will play the female leads opposite Tiger Shroff, however, rumours about Ananya Panday joining the cast are rife. The official announcement about the new leading ladies will be made next month. The film is presented by Fox Star Hindi.
