With his upcoming revenge drama Badlapur, Varun Dhawan is all set to shed his lover boy image in Bolly-wood and making a mark in the industry as an intense actor.
The ‘Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania’ star hopes 2015 will establish himself as bankable star. ” I know we are underdogs but if ‘Badlapur’ works then it will be entering to a Rs 100 crore club. I just want the audie-nce to like the film,” Varun told PTI.
‘Badlapur’, a dark multi-starrer film, is directed by Sriram Raghavan and stars Huma Qureshi, Yami Gauta-m, Divya Dutta and Radhika Apte besides Varun. It will hit theatres on February 20.
Varun, 27, said he is not in a signing spree and does not get bothered when he is often compared with his ‘Student of the Year’ co-stars Alia Bhatt and Sidharth Malhotra. “I don’t believe in rat race and try to keep away from it but somehow media keeps on comparing.
I believe we all are working here for the betterment of Indian movies and taking the industry ahead,” he said. The young actor, who is the son of filmmaker D Dhawan, wants to create his own identity in the industry. “People often compare me with Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan and young Govinda. But I just want to be next me.” Varun said. (PTI)
