Since the day Tiger Shroff has been announced as the male lead for SOTY 2, multiple speculations about the female lead have been doing the rounds. Putting all such rumours to rest, Karan Johar took to Social Media to reveal the extended cast of Student of the year 2.
Dharma and Karan Johar presented both newcomers in introductory posts on social media. Tara Sutaria started off her career as a VJ on Disney India and starred in two shows of the channel; Oye Jassie and The suite life of Karan & Kabir. Referring to her as the new admission in class, Tara’s character in the movie is described as the girl who is in the competition to win the coveted title and take the trophy home.
We are proud to present the new admission to the class of 2018, the girl who is in it to win it – #TARA! #SOTY2
