Tara Sutaria who made her film debut with Student Of The Year 2 alongside Ananya Panday and with Tiger Shroff as their leading man, is relieved that the cat is finally out of the bag. “It’s so nice that the film has released. All of us had been excited about it. The reactions have been mixed, but I am grateful for all the love we received,” the actress says.

The bouquets were naturally accompanied by brickbats, but Tara says she was ready for all outcomes. “I’ve been in this line of work for a long time, so I’m used to criticism. In this case, there was no pressure from the production house, but people had expectations given the film’s franchise status and the first part’s success. Ever since the film was announced, we’d been subjected to trolling and memes, so we were expecting some criticism. But it’s part of the process,” she reasons.

The actress has already wrapped up her second film— Marjaavaan opposite Sidharth Malhotra—and is getting into prep for the third, the RX 100 remake opposite Suneil Shetty’s debutant son Ahan. “My role in Marjaavaan is something no one else is doing right now. I didn’t expect to do my second and third film in the same year. It’s great to be busy. I finished promoting SOTY 2 and I got into the R X100 remake. We’ve shot a bit of the promotional material. Now we’re busy with readings and will go on floors in the next month or two,” Tara says.

Tara is also looking forward to a playback stint at the movies. “I hopefully get to sing in my third film,” she signs off.
