“I waited a long time to sign Jugjugg Jeeyo, Bhediya, and Nitesh Tiwari’s Bawaal. So, 2022 has been one of the most satisfying years creatively. As an actor, I am the proudest of these three films. 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,” Varun told Mid-Day.
Having said that, Varun is grateful that people have seen his films in theatres and his film’s collection has been higher than many other films that have hit the screens post-pandemic. It motivates him to try and do better with his upcoming projects to meet the expectations of the audience.
Varun recently completed 10 years in the film industry and has experimented with films such as Sriram Raghavan’s Badlapur (2015) and Shoojit Sircar’s October (2018). Speaking about his unconventional choices, the actor said that his approach is to make a good film and the producer should not lose money. He added that though box office numbers are important but such unconventional projects call out the actor in him which tells him that they are unmissable.
