Varun Dhawan on Samantha Ruth Prabhu's manifestation for him
In a new interview with Hindustan Times, Varun and Samantha opened up about Citadel: Honey Bunny. Varun said, "What I do feel is that both Citadel: Honey Bunny and Baby John are Samantha's conviction for me. We'd spoken about something and it's happened. I have to thank Samantha for that, 100%. She gave me a lot of confidence that I'm on the right track. It matters a lot."
On the other hand, Samantha agreed and said that it was her manifestation for Varun. She feels like this will be Varun's year.
Varun Dhawan on playing a stuntman
In Citadel: Honey Bunny, he will be seen exploring a new-age action subgenre – the stuntman saving the day, in the style of Brad Pitt in Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon A Time in Hollywood (2019) or the more recent David Leitch's The Fall Guy, starring Ryan Gosling.
Reacting to it, Varun said, "They're tough, they're tough as hell man. They have to have main character energy. They're doing stunts which are very daredevil. They're really doing it on the spot, there's no CG involved. I'm sure they get the stunt wrong sometimes, but they just get up and go back at it. I think ‘fearless’ is what comes to my mind."
