A 100 Percent Track Record at the Turnstiles and a Rock Steady Relationship, Varun Dhawan Is on a Roll. Rahul Gangwani Chats With the Young Superstar

Tailormade For Success

THE JOY OF BUYING A NEW HOUSE IS NOTHING COMPARED TO WHAT I EXPERIENCED WHEN I SAW MY NIECE FOR THE FIRST TIME. I CAN’T EXPLAIN THE EMOTION

Nothing would be more perfect to describe Varun Dhawan than the title of his father, David Dhawan’s blockbuster Hero.No.1. Who else can boast of a 100 percent track record? Truly, he’s a complete package. Good looks, a flair for dance, acting chops...and above all a sense of adventure to tread the untried. He may be an industry kid but he takes nothing for granted. His father’s approval matters as much for his self-esteem as does the nod of a reputed heroine to work with him. He’s his own competition. In a span of six years, his palette boasts of distinct hues. If Badrinath Ki Dulhania, Dishoom, Dilwale and Judwaa 2 have made him a youth icon, layered fare like Badlapur and October helped him cut ice with the critics. A flop-free run has cemented his position as the youngest superstar in B-town. He’ll now be seen in Yash Raj Films’ Sui Dhaaga: Made In India and Dharma Productions’ Kalank.

Away from the shimmer of stardom, he values his private space as deeply. Family is his fulcrum. Spending time with his niece is his newest joy. And there are old attachments that he holds close to his heart. He intends to tie the knot with childhood sweetheart Natasha Dalal some day. Meanwhile, his Instagram posts with her continue to give #couple goals to fans. Recently, he’s stepped into his new home. The doors have been thrown open for new beginnings, new experiences… Over to Varun Dhawan…
