26 May
Summary
- Varun Dhawan questioned if actors alone drive film success.
- He suggested 'Dhurandhar' success was director Aditya Dhar's win.
- Ranveer Singh's fans reacted strongly to Varun's remarks.
Actor Varun Dhawan recently sparked controversy with his comments regarding the success of the film 'Dhurandhar'. During a conversation with his father, filmmaker David Dhawan, Varun suggested that the film's acclaim was more attributable to director Aditya Dhar than to its lead actor, Ranveer Singh. This statement quickly circulated on social media, drawing sharp criticism from fans of Ranveer Singh.
Online discussions highlighted that a film's success is a collective effort, requiring both a capable director and a strong cast to bring a story to life. Many users interpreted Varun Dhawan's remarks as an attempt to diminish Ranveer Singh's role in 'Dhurandhar's' positive reception, with some alleging jealousy as a motive.
This incident occurred while David Dhawan reflected on the evolving film industry. Varun's comments contrasted with the general sentiment that actors play a significant role in a film's box office performance. Meanwhile, David Dhawan's upcoming film, 'Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai,' starring Varun Dhawan, is set for a June 4 release and faces a lawsuit over alleged unauthorized use of elements from older films.
