Varun Dhawan On Bawaal's FIRST Television Premiere, 'The Film Challenges Me To Step Into...'

Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor starrer Bawaal, that was helmed by Nitesh Tiwari received great reviews when the film was first released on a leading streaming platform. The film is now gearing for it’s television premiere on Zee Cinema and the leading actor Varun Dhawan has spoken exclusively about the film.

On the World Television Premiere, Varun Dhawan shared with News18 Showsha, “The film unfolds life’s uncertainties, I find solace in the belief that God has greater plans. If it happens according to the mind, it’s good; if it doesn’t happen according to the mind, it’s still good. Today, people are not fearless. Every human being has to fight their insecurities at every step. Bawaal brought this reality closer and challenged me to step into a character far from my own. It reflects the raw truth of today’s filtered lives. But amidst everything, teaming up with Janhvi was a blast! Off-screen, she’s a riot—quirky, funny, and genuinely an oddball in the best way possible. She’s one of a kind and that’s what makes her so special”

Bawaal was a collaboration between Sajid Nadiadwala’s Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment, Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari, and Nitesh Tiwari’s Earthsky Pictures. The story revolved around Ajay Dixit, a regular high school history teacher also known as Ajju bhaiya, who has gained local fame due to the false persona he has constructed. Unexpected circumstances force him to embark on a journey through Europe, tracing the trail of World War II and is compelled to bring along his newly-wed wife Nisha.

Varun Dhawan previously expressed in his interview with Galatta Plus, “Initially, for at least the first month on set, I tried an experiment where I consciously limited my interactions with her. I wanted to avoid becoming friends instantly. I chose to be somewhat distant and aloof, focusing on communicating with everyone else except her. I believed that this approach might evoke something special in both of us during scenes that demanded such intensity.”

Bawaal premieres this Saturday 25th November, 8pm only on Zee Cinema.
