Varun Dhawan, Jacqueline Fernandez and Taapsee Pannu starrer ‘Judwaa 2’ went on floors last month. Varun, who has looked up to Salman Khan since he was a child, is extremely excited to step into the superstar’s shoes. So did Salman mentor Varun before the shoot kicked off? Well, talking to PTI, the Varun recently said, “The only advice Salman Khan has given me for ‘Judwaa 2’ is that, 'listen to your dad (director David Dhawan) and don't be over smart’."

Recalling the first time he met Salman, Varun said, “I just remember watching ‘Judwaa’ in the theatre during a special screening and meeting Salman Khan for the first time. I don't remember much as I was small." Talking about how the sequel will have its characters go through major changes, Varun added, “It is sad that we don't make films on taporis anymore. There will be a big change in the character of Raja in the sequel. But I would not like to speak much about it. It is far different from what Salman did in the first film."

Talking about his upcoming film with filmmaker Shoojit Sircar, the actor said, "There is something that he has narrated to me which I really liked. I wanted to work with Shoojit Sircar ever since I watched 'Vicky Donor'. I will start shooting for the film after 'Judwaa 2' and it is a love story."
Produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, ‘Judwaa 2’ is scheduled to release on 29th September.
