Varun Dhawan is eager to do a south film: “I don’t know how, but I know it will happen”

With south cinema going pan-India, even Hindi film actors are keenly interested to be a part of a project of that scale. In recent times, actors like Ajay Devgn, Alia Bhatt, Salman Khan, and more have been featured in special roles in Telugu movies. Varun Dhawan is also one of them who wants to do a movie down south. He joined the roundtable conversation held by Galatta Plus where Karan Johar said that the Bhediya actor was “dying” to work in a south film. He said, “He will go to Hyderabad or Chennai and live there. He is dying… jumping.”

Tamil star Karthi, who was also one of the celebrities to join the roundtable conversation, said, “He (Varun) has already mentioned his interest and work there.”

Varun said, “We released Bhediya in Telugu as Thodelu. It was released by Geetha Arts. Even at the launch, they said you are more like a South Indian hero than a North Indian hero because of your energy level and the kind of films you do. I would love to do it because I have never seen a distinction. I grew up with my father (who) in the morning would show me Tamil and Telugu films.”

He added, “Given the opportunity, I would love to work there. There are brilliant filmmakers who are on my bucket list. I know it will happen. I don’t know how, but I know it will happen. It’s a plan.”

Varun pointed at Dulquer Salmaan, who was also part of the conversation and said, “He is a producer. Maybe, he can give it.” The Sita Ramam actor was laughing as he said, “I can’t afford you.”

Meanwhile, Varun Dhawan was most recently seen in Bhediya with Kriti Sanon. The film released in theatres on November 25, 2022. He will next star in Nitesh Tiwari’s Bawaal with Janhvi Kapoor.
