Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor will be seen together on the big screen for the first time in Nitesh Tiwari’s directorial ‘Bawaal’.
However, it was recently revealed that Varun Dhawan did not speak to Janhvi Kapoor for the 1st month of the Bawaal shoot.
As per reports, Varun shared that he wanted to maintain a certain distance from Janhvi to enhance the chemistry between their characters in the movie. He believed that by not interacting too much off-camera, they would have a more genuine and natural connection while filming scenes that required an emotional depth.
Varun said, “Initially, at least for the first one month we went on set, I tried this thing where I said I won’t communicate with her much. Because I felt we’ll become friends like this (snaps). I said let me not, and let me be a little aloof, a little cold. I’ll talk to everyone else but her, and purposely. I felt it might evoke something in her and something in me when we were doing scenes of that nature. (Nitesh) Sir was on this.”
“And then eventually, I told her after 20 days. Then she realised it, otherwise she took it personally. See, I did it selfishly but I think it helped both of us at that time. Actually, in the film, how gradually the couple got to know each other, we also got to know each other gradually, which was interesting,” Varun added.
Director Nitesh Tiwari was supportive of Varun’s approach.
Bawaal Movie Release Date:
21st July, 2023 in cinemas.
