Varun Dhawan hung upside down for several hours!

Actors have to go out of their way to get into the skin of their characters. Many a times it also requires them to leave their comfort zone and train themselves religiously to fulfil the requirements of their roles.

Just this morning we informed you about Ranveer Singh and Sunny Deol going bald to meet the requirements of their characters and now we have our lover boy Varun Dhawan joining the wagon.

Recently, Varun had a tough time while filming for Sajid Nadiadwala's Dishoom over the weekend, in a suburban studio.

The actor, who was shooting for his brother, Rohit Dhawan's directorial had to do a challenging scene in which he was hung upside down for several hours.

Dishoom has a lot of action sequences, including many unique stunts. In one of the scenes, Varun had to be hung upside down for about seven hours.

A source close to the actor was quoted saying, "It was an extremely difficult stunt. It affected his (Varun's) blood circulation, causing dizziness. To ensure that his health was not affected, the makers had a doctor present on the film's sets."

While the makers were worried about the actor's health, everything went smoothly. 

The source further added, "Varun pulled off the scene really well. The makers and the unit members were happy with how it turned out."

Producer of the film Sajid Nadiadwala too confirmed the news.

The film marks to be the first venture whereby Varun and his brother Rohit are working together.
