19th of October marks the six year milestone completion of Bollywood Superstar Varun Dhawan. Beginning his career with Karan Johar's 'Student of The Year', Dhawan took bollywood by storm with his debut. His acting along with his dancing skills were majorly appreciated by the youth. He became the ultimate bollywood sensation and there was no looking back for him.
But just a hit debut can't always do wonders. A couple of bad movie choices are your career is gone. We have witnessed this with many actors earlier. What requires is consistency in your performances and keep your audience engaged. Varun made no mistake and joined hands with his father for an out and out entertainer 'Main Tera Hero'. The film was a major success and Varun's career saw another high.
He maintained his success by doing films like 'ABCD 2' and 'Dilwale'. While ABCD 2 became a massive Hit. Dilwale proved to be a semi-hit (a success nevertheless). Dilwale did good for Varun however it was a disappointment for King Khan fans as the expectations were very high from this film. However, this only pushed Varun's career to a better position.
Despite giving back to back successes, there was something missing in Dhawan's career. He was criticized for playing the same goofy characters and this did make even Varun wonder that if he would restrict himself to a comedy hero something which was suitable for 90's. To break this mould, Varun did Badlapur and everyone thought it was a risk. The film was adult rated, extremely brutal, had a shocking rape scene and many violent scenes. But to everyone's surprise, the movie was a smash-hit and Varun took home the accolades. This achievement had made Dhawan proud and confident that he can pull various roles with conviction.
By now, Varun Dhawan had become bollywood's HIT machine by giving back to back success with 'Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania' 'Judwaa 2' 'Badrinath ki Dulhania' and 'Dishoom'. All these films were commercial entertainers and did well. Varun secured a record of not giving a single flop in his career. While this achievement is no less great feat for any actor. It has started to put pressure on Varun as an actor.
Believing in his versatility and now bowing down to the pressure of giving hits, Varun collaborated with Director Shoojit Sircar for film 'October'. A beautifully carved (if a little slow) with Varun a genuinely heart warming character displaying feelings of true love on celluloid. October established Dhawan again as one of the finest actors we have today. October's box office performance has been a debate since long. The movie opened slow, then picked up then went downhill and then picked up again but whatever, the outcome is, it was a success and definitely not a failure, and the major chunk for this feat goes to Varun's star power because let's face it, October would have find really tough having commercial success with any other actor given its plot.
Another film which clearly banked on Varun's star power was Sui-Dhaaga. Even though the film was well received with critics, it didn't become audience favourite. Despite doing wonderful in week one, it slowed down heavily in week two. Trade believes that it was Varun's charm that made the movie a success as he has become the love of the masses and the public trusts him otherwise Sui Dhaaga would have found it very tough. The film was slow and the pairing of Dhawan with Anushka (who looks odd and acts oddly equally) didn't impress the audience either Yet, the film concluded with a happy ending and that was all because of Dhawan's pull into theaters.
With the upcoming lineup of Varun Dhawan with films like 'Kalank' and 'ABCD 3' with Katrina Kaif, it's safe to assume that Varun is going to keep his successful record secure at the box office thus receiving love from his audiences. He is also a big name in the world of Brands. Not to mention that currently he is one of the highest paid actors today and it's a milestone definitely not easy to achieve in the span of six years. Here's wishing Varun all the best for the bright future.
