Johar, 39, has teamed up for the second time with Kapoor for his upcoming film “Student of the Year (SOTY)”, where he will be seen playing the character of a gay college dean.
“Such an honour to work with Rishi Kapoor... his versatility is unreal... Rauf Lala to his portrayal of Dean Yoginder Vasisht in SOTY... genius!,” Johar posted on Twitter.
In the remake of “Agneepath”, Rishi played the first negative character of his career as ruthless Rauf Lala.
