Days away from the release of Student Of The Year 2 (SOTY 2), director Punit Malhotra admits to feeling "scared as well as fearless." While the first instalment was helmed by Karan Johar, it is easy to see the producer's stamp on the Tiger Shroff, Ananya Panday and Tara Sutaria starrer as well - be it in the uber stylish outfits flaunted by the leads, or the glossy world of high school. But Malhotra throws a curveball when he reveals that choreographer-director Farah Khan has a significant role in shaping the SOTY 2 universe.

"For me, the Bible was Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar [1992] and Main Hoon Na [2004]. I am close to Farah [Main Hoon Na director]; she had also worked on Jo Jeeta... So, I would extensively brainstorm with her on the material."
