box office wise. One can call him a
producer's actor much like Akshay Kumar.
He has not delivered a single flop till now
and is going steady with his career. Though
identified as a total commercial hero, he
also makes an effort to mix genres and built
a wholesome profile. After he made his
debut with Karan Johar's Student Of Year in
2012, he has appeared in gritty and
dramatic films like Badlapur and October
but also has entertained us with masala
movies like Main Tera Hero, Badrinath Ki
Dulhania, Judwaa 2, Dilwale, among others.
He is soon coming up with Sui Dhaaga with
Anushka Sharma where he will be playing a
small town weaver, Mauji. The film looks
high on content and low on glamour. In a
recent interaction with media, parallels
were drawn between his choices of films
with none other than Ranbir Kapoor, who
is arguably the most talented actor on our
generation.
Varun addressed this and said that while he
has no fixed pattern in choosing films, he
said that the comparisons are made
between Ranbir and him because both
their films are working. He also said that
Ranbir is doing wonderful work and
Ranveer Singh too is amazing. He added
that he appreciated Rajkummar Rao and
the work is doing currently. He said that
when started watching Hindi films, he
found them repeating but now it seems
that actors like Arjun Kapoor (who is doing
India's Most Wanted), Ranveer, Rajkummar
and Ranbir are doing meaningful work to
break the monotony.
Sui Dhaaga will release on September 28
and will showcase Varun in a never seen
before de-glam along with Anushka. The
film directed by Sharad Kataria and
produced by Yash Raj Films.
