Talking about working in Student of the Year 2, Tiger Shroff told indianexpress.com, "When I joined the film industry, I was desperate to impress people and do the right thing. As a result, I often wasn’t at ease. SOTY 2 has taught me to loosen up a bit and be myself. I’m still anxious during action and dance sequences since I try to meet the audience expectations. However, I enjoyed shooting the scenes where I had to act as a normal student. I also loved the romantic scenes. My takeaway from the film is that I needn’t be uptight all the time."
He was also all praise for his co-stars Ananya Panday and Tara Sutaria. "The girls are amazing. They don’t even come across as newcomers. They are so well prepared and focused that at times I have had to up my game on sets to keep up with them," Tiger said.
Student of the Year (2012) was a Karan Johar directorial and marked the Bollywood debuts of Varun Dhawan, Alia Bhatt and Sidharth Malhotra. Its sequel shows the new batch at St. Teresa college in Dehradun.
