Bollywood multi-hyphenate Karan Johar, who last directed 'Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani', is celebrating 12 years of the release of his directorial 'Student of the Year'.
On Sunday, KJo took to the Stories section of his Instagram, and re-shared a Reel showing a deleted scene from the film. The scene showcases Alia Bhatt's character walking up to Varun Dhawan and asking him to express grief for Sidharth Malhotra's character grandmother. Varun then tells her that Sid's grandmother in the film is still alive.
Later, Varun and Sid's character share a funny moment as they laugh at the antics of Alia's character. The scene in question comes up as a run-up to the song 'Ishq Waala Love'.
'Student of the Year' is a teen sports romantic comedy film directed by Karan Johar and produced by Dharma Productions and Red Chillies Entertainment. The film marked the debut Sidharth, Alia and Varun. It also stars Rishi Kapoor, Sana Saeed, Ronit Roy, Sahil Anand, Ram Kapoor, and Farida Jalal.

Earlier, a war of words ensued between KJo and actress-director Divya Khossla as the latter accused Bollywood superstar and KJo's prodigy Alia Bhatt of buying the tickets to her own movie 'Jigra', produced by Karan's Dharma Production, KJo and Divya have come at loggerheads.
They both took to their respective social media handles, and engaged in mud-slinging without naming each other. While Karan took to the Stories section of his Instagram, and wrote, "Silence is the best speech you will ever give to fools". Divya replied by sharing a quote on her Instagram Stories, "Truth will always offend Fools opposed to it".
