Varun Dhawan Expected His Film Bhediya to Perform Better At the Box Office

This is what Varun Dhawan had to say while speaking to the Mid-Day, “When the lockdown happened, I hit a roadblock. I was burnt out. I felt my choices have to be films that I am creatively satisfied with. The reason to do them should not be that I have dates available.” he said.

He also gave reason why he took time to sign films like Jugjugg Jeeyo and Bawaal, “I am the proudest of these three films (Bhediya, Jugjugg Jeeyo, and Bawaal),” Varun said.

At the same time, Varun thought Bhediya would have fared well at the box office in terms of numbers. This is what he said, “It has been such a strange year, (with films) trying to get people back to theatres. I expected Bhediya to do better box-office numbers than it did. Having said that, I am grateful that people have seen the film in cinemas and its collection is higher than that of many. It tells you that you should try and do better,” he said.

Varun Dhawan will next be seen in his upcoming film Bawaal. It’s a Nitesh Tiwari’s film starring Janhvi Kapoor in the female lead. The film is scheduled to release in 2023.

He will next feature headline Citadel in India with Samantha Ruth Prabhu. The project is originally created by Russo Brothers is currently being helmed by Krishna DK and Raj Nidimoru.
