Varun Dhawan to team up with Rajkumar Hirani

With an enviable body of work and a huge fan following, Varun Dhawan is undoubtedly the most successful star from the current crop of actors in Bollywood. He has portrayed a diverse range of characters in his six-year-long career.

From action to romance and comic caper to social drama, Varun has done it all. And if latest reports are to be believed, the actor is set to team up with acclaimed filmmaker Rajkumar Hirani.


According to a source, Hirani will start work on the film soon after the release of his Sanjay Dutt biopic. "Since Hirani will be free in June after the release of Dutt, reports claim that he will be going solo this time because Vidhu Vinod Chopra has asked him to create his own path now. The film, to star Varun, is being fine-tuned at the moment and will go on floors in January next year, for a late 2019 release."

Meanwhile, Varun Dhawan, whom we last saw in Judwaa 2, will next be seen in Shoojit Sircar's October. Besides, he also has Yash Raj Films' Sui Dhaaga, co-starring Anushka Sharma in hand.
