Karan Johar Reveals Sidharth, Varun REFUSED To Work With Alia Bhatt In SOTY: 'You Can't Cast Her...'
Karan added that Varun showed him pictures of other actresses to cast in the film instead of Alia.

Karan Johar’s ‘students’ Sidharth Malhotra and Varun Dhawan appeared together on the latest episode of his popular chat show Koffee with Karan. The two actors made their debut together in Karan’s film Student of the Year in 2012 with Alia Bhatt. While Sidharth, Varun and Alia share a good bond today, Karan Johar said on the show that it did not begin like this. Karan revealed that both actors did not want him to cast Alia in the film.

Sid And Varun Didn’t Want Alia in SOTY

Karan said, “I still remember with Alia, the first time that she walked in, how both of you sent me messages saying you can’t cast her. One of you said she is too young. I am saying it started like this but when we shot with her, three months post that for a photo shoot, I remember she stood quiet and didn’t look at either of you. Either she was conscious or shy because you all already knew me. She didn’t know me at all. We did the photo shoot, and right after that, I mean, I knew at the first shot.” Karan added that Varun Dhawan sent him pictures of other actresses he could cast instead of Alia.

Alia Earlier Spoke About Her First Impression Of Varun And Sid

Alia Bhatt had mentioned in earlier interviews that her first impressions of Varun and Sid weren’t too great. Speaking to Sony Music earlier, Alia said, “I thought Varun had too much of an attitude. Also, we both came from rival schools.”

After Student of the Year, Varun and Alia went on to collaborate on more romantic films like Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania, Badrinath Ki Dulhania and Kalank. Their chemistry is not only appreciated by fans on-screen but also off-screen during their public appearances.

Meanwhile, when it came to Sidharth Malhotra, Alia said in the same interview, “As for Sidharth, he kept to himself.” “But as and when I got to know them, it was fun and we really had a fun time shooting,” Alia added. Alia and Sidharth dated after the film’s release and Alia’s beloved cat Edward is a gift from the actor. They appeared together in the film Kapoor and Sons.

Alia’s Message

Alia sent a special message to the two actors for their appearance on the Koffee couch. She said that she only has love for them. She called Sid a good singer and encouraged him to sing more often and in public. She also complimented Varun’s sense of humour.
