Did you know that Varun Dhawan was insecure about Sidharth Malhotra during 'SOTY' shoot?

Bollywood actor Varun Dhawan made his acting debut with Karan Johar's 'Student of the Year' in 2021. The Hindi film also marked the debut of Sidharth Malhotra and Alia Bhatt. 'Student of the Year', also turned out to be a hit at the box office. In the latest entertainment news, Varun Dhawan's father David Dhawan, recently recounted how Karan Johar flew Varun Dhawan and his co-star Sidharth Malhotra to Goa for a photoshoot, and how this left his son upset.

"He was studying abroad; he came back. We never talked about films. All of a sudden he approached Karan Johar and assisted him for My Name is Khan. The cinematographer, Ravi K Chandran, noticed him mouthing dialogues and told Karan, you must watch this boy. One day, Karan comes home and tells me he wants to launch him," David Dhawan said on Arbaaz Khan’s show 'The Invincibles Series'.

"They did a photo shoot for him and Sidharth in Goa. They looked so young, so youthful. Some days, he used to be very upset…these things happen in a two-hero film. I said, son, you’re damn good, your confidence is something else. Just remember one thing, kandhe pe pair rakh aur kud ja. That is your success. Darna nahi hain," he added.

David Dhawan also said that after 'Student of the Year' was released, Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan told him that Varun Dhawan would last long in the film industry. 

On the work front, Varun Dhawan will next be seen in Kalees' 'Baby John', the Hindi film is a remake of Atlee's Tamil movie 'Theri'.

He has also 'Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari' in the pipeline.
