Producer-director Karan Johar, who is launching three new actors with his forthcoming film Student Of The Year, says that is as emotional about the project as the actor's parents.
At the launch of the theatrical trailer of the film, Johar said, "The film feels different from any other film that I have directed as I have worked with movie stars who don't need hand-holding. With these three newcomers, it was a journey like nurturing and parenting them."
Karan Johar is launching with Mahesh Bhatt's daughter Alia Bhatt, David Dhawan's son Varun Dhawan and model Siddharth Malhotra for the film.
"I am sure their parents are going through the same emotions that I am going through right now. It's a very special feeling. This is something that I felt I needed to do. It's a very satisfying emotion," he further added.
Student Of The Year is set to release on October 19.
