MUMBAI MIRROR (November 13, 2017)

Varun Dhawan may have clocked in nine blockbusters since his debut in 2012 but the 30-year-old actor insists that he doesn’t get special treatment from those close to him. “My family and friends treat me the same way. I did not have my lunch today and my mom shouted at me, I don’t think anyone is treating me differently. I am still getting the same treatment. For me, it is about putting a smile on people’s faces. Our box office was not going through a good time when Judwaa 2 was to release and soon things changed as the film did well. The box office is looking good now as quite a few films did well after Judwaa 2,” Varun was quoted as saying recently.

Talking on the sidelines of a dance festival, the actor revealed that the hip-hop genre bug bit him at a young age. “I used to wear baggy pants, thinking that I was living the hip-hop way. I used to get reprimanded in school. (It was) when I started listening to the songs and their stories, that I understood their culture,” the actor said.
