Varun Dhawan’s ‘Judwaa 2’ is barely a month a month away from its release and there sure are a lot of expectations riding on the movie. Talking about the pressure, Varun recently said, “The commercial pressure of a film on an actor is the biggest. I have sleepless nights because I have a film due for release. I wonder if I’ve done enough, if people will think it’s worth paying the increasingly steep ticket prices and buying the expensive popcorn to see my film, or would they prefer watching a ‘Dunkirk’?”

When asked what it is like to work with his dad David Dhawan, he said, “I think it’s similar to ‘Main Tera Hero’, only then I was so new that I’d feel bad when he would insult me. But now I’m quite cool with it because I’m pretty hardcore myself.” Talking about his father, he added, “My father is one of the most commercial directors of the last two or three decades, so his advice is often for me to take the most commercial film. But I think he’s slowly understanding my need to express myself artistically in different types of films. Which is why I did a film like ‘Badlapur’. And ultimately, he’s a creative person, so if something moves him, he’ll give it a thumbs up.”

Also starring Jacqueline Fernandez and Taapsee Pannu, ‘Judwaa 2’ will hit the theatres on 29th September.
