Varun Dhawan denies replacing Ranveer Singh in Zoya Akhtar's next
There were reports recently that Varun Dhawan had replaced Ranveer Singh in Zoya Akhtar's next film.
Mumbai: There were reports that Varun Dhawan will be seen in Zoya Akhtar's film and the actor has finally spoken about it.
When asked about it, the actor said, "No, there is no truth to that."
Varun also spoke about his other films. About 'Judwaa 2', he said that the film is a big responsibility and that he is looking forward to work with Taapsee Pannu and Jacqueline Fernandez.
The movie will be directed by Varun's father, filmmaker David Dhawan, who also helmed the 1997 hit.
"I always wanted to work with Taapsee. She has done great work like in 'Pink'. I have worked with Jacqueline Fernandez before and it's fun to work with her again. I think 'Judwaa 2' is a big responsibility," Varun told reporters here last night at star screen awards.
Varun, 29, will be seen next in 'Badrinath Ki Dulhania' opposite Alia Bhatt.
"The film will release during the festival of Holi in March next year. It's a special film and I am passionate about it. There is a special message also in the film so it's important."
Varun won best actor in comedy role award for 'Dishoom' at the Star screen awards last night.
"It's (best actor comic award) special as my family has been associated with comedy. It's more special as it's directed by my brother Rohit. This is the first award show of the season and it feels great," he said.
