Noticed this thing about Varun - Page 2

I enjoy watching his performances in most movies. I think his acting is sometimes OTT but convincing.

But I absolutely wanted to cry while watching his scenes in Coolie No 1. The acting was exceptionally bad. 😭 I had to rewatch the original to see if the role just demanded bad acting but Govinda was so good in the original.

he is good actor but underrated, + plus his is better than most of modern leading actors

Also I think Varun doesn't get enough credit for what he does in his rom coms. Rom coms as a genre has little respect and there is no actor who can showcase great acting in rom com because the material just isn't there. I am thinking of all the great romantic movies of 90s, 2000s and 2010s. I can't think of a single movie where everyone went wah what great acting. Maybe Kareena in JWM and TWM2 Datto are the exceptions because those roles were truly unique for bollywood females. Vidya Balan, Kareena, Priyanka, Hrithik, Ranbir, Ranveer, Deepika all are less than their best selves in rom coms.

Despite all of that I think Varun is one of the better actors of this genre along with KRK and Ayushman

KRK? But I agree with you about rom-coms. They are dismissed as one time watches. Varun was entertaining in the Dulhania series. Especially as Humpty. His give-and-take with Alia was the best thing about the movies though both of them had a weak climax. I liked his chemistry with Parineeti in Jaaneman and was looking forward to more from this pair. With the way Pari's career is nosediving, it doesn't seem likely. Varun is going to be super-cautious after the disaster that is Coolie No.1.

I love the way Varun brings this song to life!
