Bollywood filmmaker Karan Johar made Alia Bhatt's debut in Bollywood with his film. Karan Johar has now talked about Alia Bhatt and his film 'Student of the Year' in an interview. He said that he always knew that Alia Bhatt would become a star, but did not know that she would become such a successful actress.

In an interview on the YouTube channel Game Changers, Karan Johar said that Varun and Siddharth had been my assistants in My Name is Khan. I was going to launch Alia for the first time. I met her for the first time in my office when she came home from school. When I launched these three, I clearly told my team that you should treat these three like big stars. We never treated them like new stars. We always treated her like a megastar so she could work the same way.

Karan Johar said, "I always thought that Alia would become a star, but I never thought that she would become this kind of actress." Karan Johar said that I always say that her emotional launch was 'Student of the Year' and her professional launch was 'Highway'. That film opened all the doors to acting for Alia.

Karan Johar has talked about the game-changing film of his career. Karan Johar said, "When I was working on the film My Name is Khan, I felt that this film was beyond my scope. After 12 years, I felt that I really knew how to work, I am a director."
