The movie will reportedly be directed by Punit Malhotra of the I Hate Luv Storys fame! Earlier, the movie was to be filmed with Imran Khan as the lead actor; however, he was replaced by Shahid Kapoor. It’s a notable fact that Shahid Kapoor was offered a role in Kaal by Karan Johar in 2005! But Shahid Kapoor declined the role since Kareena Kapoor and Karan Johar were on sour terms at that time! Kareena Kapoor was apparently replaced by Preity Zinta for Kal Ho Na Ho which turned out to be a blockbuster; and back then, Shahid and Kareena were lovers!

Shahrukh Khan to play as professor in Karan's 'Student Of The Year': How could it be that Karan Johar directs a film and not chalk out a meaty role for his best buddy Shahrukh Khan?
So recently when Johar unveiled the first look of his next film Student Of The Year - that will introduce new faces Varun Dhawan, Alia Bhatt and Siddharth Malhotra - eyebrows were raised because SRK was conspicuously missing from the credits. Well, now we hear that SRK will indeed act in the film, apart from co-producing it with Johar. The actor will play a college professor whom the students adore.
Fans of the superstar might say they have already seen SRK playing similar roles in films like Mohabattein and Main Hoon Na.
But trust Karan Johar to make the character different. We hear he is taking a break from the hustle-bustle of Bollywood to work on the script and flesh out SRK’s character. We hope it won’t be just a cameo.

Karan Johar shocked by popularity of Madhuri Dixit!: When Karan Johar started seeking a fitting guest to accompany Madhuri Dixit on his show Koffee With Karan, he was shocked by the number of calls he got. Every other actress wanted to share the couch with Mads.
Sipping a cuppa with the one and only Madhuri Dixit sounds super-exciting to our young set of actresses. Karan tells a tabloid, “I can’t say I'm amazed by Madhuri's popularity. When I decided to invite her on my show I didn't know that her popularity seeps down right to the youngest of Bollywood.” The TV show host was flooded with requests, and whenever any Bollywood babe called him, he knew what the reason behind that was. Karan couldn’t decide whom he should call along side Madhuri. Now as per reports, it’s Sonkashi Sinha who will get lucky to be with Mads on Karan’s show.
But we think getting Dr Shriram Nene, husband of Madhuri, would have been a better choice as Karan’s show mainly has had real-life couples and we can’t remember when Madhuri came on a talk show with her dear hubby.
Koffee With Karan: Lara Dutta and Mahesh Bhupathi as guest - Pics: There is something about Koffee and its aroma that entices the celeb guests to speak their heart out.

This was the couple’s first appearance on a TV show.
So, what was the highlight of the episode? The chemistry between the couple and the revelation that a serious-looking guy like Mahesh can also crack jokes. The high point of the episode was when Mahesh tells Karan that he calls Lara a “serial killer” as the lady had done quite a few romantic scenes in her films. Lara was taken aback but was quick to rejoin that this title belongs exclusively to Emraan Hashmi. The couple talked openly about their relationship and how they are completely smitten with each other.

It would be interesting to see what frank disclosures Salman makes on the show.
