Varun spills the beans on dad’s on-set roasting
Bollywood’s beloved father-son duo David and Varun Dhawan are gearing up for their much-awaited collaboration ‘Hai Jawani’, and it looks like the set was full of laughter and some classic dad jokes. In a recent chat, Varun Dhawan opened up about how his legendary filmmaker father didn’t hold back when it came to giving him a hard time on set.
“He straight up roasted my smile,” Varun laughed, recalling the moment. “He said, ‘Beta, you look like you’re selling toothpaste in that scene.’ I mean, that’s my dad for you – always keeping it real.” The actor admitted that while it stung a little, he knew his father meant well. “He’s been in the industry for decades, so when he gives feedback, you listen. Even if it comes with a side of sarcasm.”
Behind the scenes of ‘Hai Jawani’
Industry insiders reveal that the chemistry between the Dhawans on set was electric. “David sir is known for his no-nonsense attitude, but with Varun, it’s a whole different vibe,” a source close to the production shared. “He treats him like any other actor, but there’s an underlying warmth that only a father can have.”
The film, which has been creating buzz since its announcement, promises to be a fun ride. Varun, who has worked with some of the biggest directors in Bollywood, said working with his father was a dream come true. “I’ve grown up watching his films, and now to be directed by him – it’s surreal. Even if he does make fun of my expressions.”
Fans can’t wait for the Dhawan magic
Social media has been abuzz with fans reacting to Varun’s revelation. One fan wrote, “David Dhawan roasting Varun – that’s the content we didn’t know we needed!” Another commented, “This is why we love the Dhawans – they keep it real and hilarious.”
‘Hai Jawani’ is expected to hit theaters later this year, and if the behind-the-scenes stories are anything to go by, audiences are in for a treat. Whether it’s the father-son banter or the promise of classic David Dhawan comedy, this film is already shaping up to be a blockbuster.
