In a recent chat with ETimes, Varun spoke his mind and shared where he sees himself in the movie space. The Bhediya actor said that over the past years, there has been a big change in him. “I have actually stopped thinking about the rat race. I’m very happy where I am. It is not that I don’t have aspirations, I have major aspirations and inspirations to reach somewhere but I’ve realized that I want to keep them to myself, till I have achieved them,” he divulged.
Currently, Varun is filming for VD18 which will be produced by Jawan director Atlee Kumar. He will also be venturing into the OTT space with the TV series Citadel which is an Indian spin-off of the American TV show by the same name, starring Priyanka Chopra Jonas.
Varun Dhawan on biographical film
In an earlier interview, the actor had also shared his two cents about doing a biopic of a cricketer, just like Sushant Singh Rajput’s Varun said, “I’m very nervous to do a biopic of a cricketer. I love the game so much, I don’t want to get it right only synthetically. If I do then I will need to give it 3-4 years and only do that.”
