- Varun Dhawan received positive response for his film Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai
- Varun discussed being roasted by his father David Dhawan about his side smile
- David Dhawan wanted to include a joke on Varun’s smile in his film but did not
Bollywood actor Varun Dhawan, who is receiving a positive response to his recently released film Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai, has shared how his father David Dhawan roasted him. The director also wanted the audience to enjoy the joke at his son's expense by using the joke in his film but eventually didn't use it.
The actor recently appeared on comedian Tanmay Bhat's show and spoke about being made fun of because of his side smile.
When asked if he anticipated being trolled for his smile, Varun said, “No, I thought I would be made fun of because of something else. I never thought anyone would make fun of this. I thought there are so many things (for which he could be trolled) like my voice, for instance. I would literally sound like an 8-year-old girl, initially. That's what my brother used to tell me, when I made my debut, I thought voice, height, bad acting, etc. I didn't think the smile was so bad."
However, the actor turned out to be a good sport, as he appreciated the jokes around his smile, as he said, “I think after a while, it became funny. It actually became funny for me. I found the biscuit one very funny”.
He then went on to reveal how his father came up with the idea to make fun of his smile.
“There's a joke in my new film, which my dad wanted to do on me. But then eventually he didn't do it. It was supposed to be a scene where I have kids, and their smile is the same as mine. I was like, ‘Why do you want to do that?. He said, ‘No, no, let's do it. People will laugh at you”, he added.
