Suhana is the daughter of Gauri and Shah Rukh khan while Shanaya, who is currently working as assistant director on the Gunjan Saxena biopic, is Sanjay and Maheep Kapoor's daughter.

Sanjay Kapoor recently told Pinkvilla that Shanaya intends to be an actor and that the Gunjan Saxena biopic is Shanaya's prep work for her full-fledged Bollywood debut. "Before she wanted to take up a film, she didn't want to be abroad for a three-year-course. Instead, she chose something personal like this," he said.

Suhana Khan has already featured on a magazine cover and in the accompanying interview she said in affirmative that she wants to be an actor. "My parents only realised I was serious about acting when they saw a performance of mine for the first time. I was playing Miranda in a school performance of The Tempest," she told Vogue.

Speaking of which she told news agency IANS: "I think for my casting of Pati Patni Aur Woh remake the makers saw my ad film which I did for a brand and they decided to cast me in the film. I am thankful for the chance and I have a lot more work to do in cinema."

Student Of The Year 2 also stars Tiger Shroff and Tara Sutaria.
