To say that Dan is a complex character to essay may very well be an understatement. I don't mean to say that Dan is not someone who you won't come across in your everyday life, that is highly likely. But still, just like the rest of us, there is a certain uniqueness about him. His set of values and emotions are starkly different from the ones around him.

He is certainly a cocky fellow who, for the most part, just doesn't want to be in the circumstances he is in. He is asking the wrong questions at the wrong time and he is just asking too many of them. But in all of that, his intentions are pure as gold. He is irritating yet likeable, cheeky yet innocent and resilient yet vulnerable, he is complex in the most humanly way possible.
And believe me when I say it, it takes a lot of skill to convey the intricacies of such a complex character as beautifully as Varun has done.


Dan's idiosyncracies, his to hell with what ppl think attitude & yet coming out as the only person who cared so selflessly

I mean a character so irritable, constantly frustrated, snapping at others and Varun makes him so endearing & likable. His feelings for Shiuli were so ambiguously pure.

And yeah I kinda agree with what u said earlier that Ranbir has/had the ability to elevate mediocre scripts I mean he pulled off that random mesh Rockstar😆 Varun also elevates downright crappy films some times with performances other times timeh right energy.
Ranveer on the other hand I feel lacks that ability I mean Befikre was decent rom-com but the guy just lacked the charm to pull it off.

Wow you guys talking about dan!!
I love that character so much, can be clearly seen through my username😆
Shoojit and juhi wrote such a wonderful, complex but a real character, and varun made the character so lovable and adorable. Only he could have done that.

Varun have been just so likeable on-screen in all his roles till now. Even if he plays a guy like badri who is arrogant and misogynistic, you still want to root for him. The difference between him and rk-rs is his ability to portray honesty and vulnerability on-screen. Specially his eyes❤️
Most of his directors says the same thing.
I know he has given not so good performances some time. But I am glad he accepts his limitations and work on it!!
Bas his father should stop making him act like salman-govinda in his movies.

And off-screen toh he is a sweetheart❤️

If we are talking about performance on screen:

Varun

If we are talking about off screen persona
RK
Varun
RS

these would be my ratings.

@Bold
Which is kinda dangerous & he needs to be more careful & responsible about it. I mean in SOTY his Rohan had the mildest sob story of being a Rich spoilt playboy brat (verbally abused though) but I was busy rooting for Varun 😆over self-made gareeb orphan & neglected by BF-family bimbo


Dan yeah I can go on n on about this character his quirky-blunt interactions with nurse & hospital staff are ❤️

@TooMuch- Watch October if u want but cant say if u can jhelo it😆
Its too dry, slow-paced & glum but a very lifelike experience

But I love that, he has such an honest face😆 and when he has to become negative he aces that too. Like I started detesting raghu towards the end of badlapur or was scared by how badri kidnaps and put alia into the car.
That is why I am hoping he has done a good job in kalank too.

Well even I came out from soty thinking "bechara" rohan😆
Even if his character was a playboy in the film, I still felt so bad for him when sid and alia kissed.

I meant wrt J2-Raja nd all😆
Yeah I love him in grey shade characters, he has been calling Kalank his toughest role till date so really high hopes from that one.


In SOTY I felt so bad for him during his confrontation with Ram Kapoor. Sid-Alia scene mein toh I was like good riddance dunno why😆
