Don't want to compare the two SOTY films: Tiger

Bollywood actor Tiger Shroff, is currently ruling the hearts of his fans with his fabulous acting and handsome looks. The actor who has danced to glory and performed stunts galore in the trailer of "Student Of The Year 2" (SOTY 2), says he wants to steer clear of comparisons between his movie and its predecessor.

The trailer of SOTY 2, starring Tiger with newcomers Tara Sutaria and Ananya Panday, was launched here on Friday. Comparisons with the original 2012 film, which launched Alia Bhatt, Varun Dhawan and Sidharth Malhotra, are inevitable.

Talking about the criticism and comparisons Tiger said, "I do not want to compare as in which one is better. This is a different film altogether, though the world is the same... as in college, students. I have done my best to bring in what people know me for... I have sort of brought in little 'Tigerism' to my character."

"I am really thankful to director Punit Malhotra for giving me a lot of scope to express myself in that manner. This is the first time on-screen in Bollywood that we are introducing kabaddi, which is interesting."

The film features a story of two college girls played by Ananya and Tara who fall in love with the character essayed by Tiger.

Its trailer features Tiger dancing to his father Jackie Shroff's favourite Kishore Kumar song "Yeh jawaani hai deewani'.

"I think once dad sees the song, he will be very happy. Though I did not know that it was his favourite," Tiger said.

The film's producer Karan Johar said that while they kept the voice of Kishore Kumar intact in the remix version, Tiger felt honoured to lipsync in it.

Directed by Punit Malhotra, produced by Dharma Productions, the film is slated to release on May 10. It will also have a wide international release.
