Varun Dhawan: I Don't Want to Cheat My Audience

Varun is currently on the last leg of promotions for Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania which releases on July 11

Highlights

Alia , The Lurker would be the title of Alia Bhatt's autobiography said co-star Varun Dhawan who is on the last leg of their Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania promotions.
‘Lurking’ was Alia's favourite word and Varun felt it described her best since she loved lurking around in an unusually good mood. Meanwhile, Alia may be set for a hat trick of hits, with critical acclaim for Highway, commercial success for Two States and now the Dulhania looking all set to rock the box office.
So is Alia carrying the film and the hero on her shoulders?
“Yes she is,” said Varun affectionately. “And hopefully her success will rub on to me and I will have a hattrick to boast off,” he added.
With the success of Main Tera Hero behind him, Varun said that public reviews mattered to him more than the ‘so called inflated box office figures’ which most of the time translated as nothing but publicity stunts.
“I want the audience to like the film. I don't want to cheat them,” said the star.
All three students from Karan Johar’s Student Of The Year have fared exceptionally well. So do they see each other or anyone as competition?
“No,” Alia and Varun said in unison.
Varun seemed very impressed by actor Ashutosh Rana and said if there was competition to him then it was him.
Varun is now getting set to put the ‘bad’ into ‘being bad’ with his next film Badlapur.
If there was a film that the young Mr Dhawan wanted to do, it would be Doors which featured Val Kilmer in the lead. But that can wait as Varun is yet to find his feet in Bollywood's hall of fame.
