You'll never guess how quickly Varun Dhawan finished shooting for 'October'!

Shoojit Sircar's upcoming film 'October' which stars Varun Dhawan and Banita Sandhu in lead roles is one of the most awaited films of next year. So, the audience will be glad to know that the director wrapped up the shooting of the film on Wednesday. The film's team finished the last day of the shoot in Manali and Shoojit says they will celebrate it with a small party.

"Yes, there is a party. It is really cold in Manali and we have an early morning flight to catch. We are happy and relieved that we have finished the shoot before time," he said. The director further revealed that 'October' will explore a different side of Delhi. "I find a lot of character in Delhi. I am familiar with the city and the people. It is always very comforting to return to Delhi. I will explore the romantic side of the city this time," he added.

Talking about Varun, he stated, "I think he is very bright. He is trying to open up to different genres. Actors should keep exploring different genres, stories and directors. At the end of the day, you have to challenge yourself." He decided to cast Banita after directing her in one of his commercials. Talking about Banita, he said, "It just so happened that the ad turned out to be really good and we found the character that we were looking for in her."

On the film's release date producing partner, Ronnie Lahiri said, "There is not much gap between shooting and the release as we did not want to delay the release as we have a good film in our hands and there is no point in waiting." He added that they finished the shoot in just 38 days and ahead of schedule. "We loved collaborating with Varun. It was a great atmosphere on the sets. It was never pack and to my room for Varun. He would usually hang out with the crew," he concluded.
