Varun Dhawan will play an old man in Sriram Raghavan's next
Mumbai: Actor Varun Dhawan, who has played a student and new-age Govinda in his past films, will be required to portray a character several decades older than his biological age and the 26-year-old says it will be the toughest role he will get to play for a very long time.
After his show-stealing turn as a new-age Govinda in his father David Dhawan's 'Main Tera Hero' and a boy next-door character in his upcoming film 'Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania', the 'Student Of The Year' goes straight into Sriram Raghavan's untitled film.
"In Sriram Raghavan's film, I've what may probably be the most challenging role that I'd ever do in my career. I know I've just started out. But Sriram's film gives me a very complex character to play. I can guarantee you this would be the toughest role I'd get to play for a very long time," said Varun.
Varun Dhawan will be required to portray a character several decades older than his biological age.
"I've to take my character through a number of generations. I've to play both younger and much older than my actual age. I've never seen anything like this before. Sriram's approach to filmmaking is very different from that of any other filmmaker that I know of," he added.
While Varun is not allowed to say any more about his role in Raghavan's film, it is reported that he would require enormous prosthetic support to play the older version of his character.
"Sriram is currently experimenting with various looks for Varun's character. The idea is to make him look convincing as a 60-year-old without drastically revising his looks or body language," said a source.
_________________________________________Badlapur: Yaami Gautam to play Varun's wife and Huma a prostitute in Sriram Raghavan's Badlapur
We have now learnt that Huma will be playing the role of a prostitute and the beautiful Yaami Gautam, Varun's wife. The film that is currently being shot in Pune is slated to release in 2015. While we yet don't know the mystery behind the title Badlapur, we are sure it will bring some badlao in the life of Varun Dhawan who is playing one of the most challenging roles for any actor.
Mumbai: Varun Dhawan, who has played the clean-shaven college student in all his releases so far, is gearing up for a new look. Our sources tell us that he will be sporting long hair and a beard for Sriram Raghavan's next film. Varun is supposed to start preparing for the project next week onwards.
The only catch is that currently the actor is promoting Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhaniya that is up for release soon. The new rough-and-tough look in Raghavan's film will be in sharp contrast to his current Humpty avatar.
A source says, "Sriram is clear about the kind of look he expects from Varun and it will be a major change for the actor. Varun is ready to take up the challenge. He is hoping that his fans are receptive to the sudden change as the promotions of HSKD are still on with a lot more road shows and public interactions coming up."
