'SRK-Kajol don't take their stardom for granted'

November 25, 2015

Mumbai, Nov 25: Over the years, Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol have emerged as one of the most iconic pairs of Bollywood, but actor Varun Sharma, who shares screen space with them in "Dilwale", says the two stars do not take their stardom for granted.

srk kajolShah Rukh and Kajol are reuniting on screen after a gap of years with director Rohit Shetty's "Dilwale". The film also stars Varun Dhawan, Kriti Sanon and Johnny Lever.

"Both Shah Rukh and Kajol are serious actors, who keep rehearsing their dialogues, going through their lines and are extremely hardworking. They have been working together since a long time and the dedication and passion is still there.

"They don't take things for granted and that has inspired me and Varun Dhawan a lot. It was a learning experience," Varun told PTI.

The hit pair, who first appeared together in the 1993 crime-thriller "Baazigar", established themselves as a sought-after pair with films like "Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge" and "Kuch Kuch Hota Hai".

The trailer of "Dilwale" garnered mixed response from viewers with some saying there was not enough of SRK and Kajol in it.

Varun, who made debut with 2013 release "Fukrey", however, says there is a lot of the two actors in the much awaited romantic- action-drama.

"'Dilwale' is a lot about them. The feedback that I received for the trailer, from my family, friends and others was very encouraging... So I don't know if some people are saying that there was not enough of them," he said.

Varun's character of 'Chucha' in "Fukrey" became extremely popular. While he is once again essaying a comic role in "Dilwale", but the actor says there are no similarities between the two roles.

"I play a character called Siddhu. It is in a happy space who will provide lots of fun and will give audience laughter. I have kept the character very normal, grounded and in a fun space. There is no similarity between him and Chucha," he said.

"Dilwale" is scheduled to release on December 18, in a box-office clash with filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali's "Bajirao Mastani".

Mar 11: The shooting of Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai has been completed, and the film will now release on schedule.

If one recalls, the film went on the floors in the first week of November 2019 and was supposed to be Salman’s fastest completed film. However, the movie faced a variety of roadblocks — It was first to be wrapped in the first week of February, “But Salman went off to his Panvel farmhouse after the release of Dabangg 3 and spent a while there ushering in his birthday,” a source reveals.

“Then, the extension of the show Bigg Boss 13 by five weeks also turned out to be another speed breaker. Then, Salman wanted to make sure that the film was being made as good as what his audiences wanted on Eid. He made sure that his director Prabhudeva got what he wanted from the performers and didn’t want to rush him.

"Additionally, the Azerbaijan schedule of the film also got cancelled as Salman did not want to take any chances with the cast and crew with the lurking Covid 19, and rescheduled the shoot in India. This is now complete, barring any patchwork that might emerge later,” our source adds.

Radhe is slated to be an Eid release, which will clash with Akshay Kumar’s Laxmmi Bomb.

Mumbai, Jan 9: Actor Juhi Chawla on Wednesday said instead of constantly criticising the government, one should reflect on own conduct and talk about uniting rather than dividing.

The actor attended an event which aimed to counter "Free Kashmir (narrative), anti-India slogans, false propaganda and clear the misconception."

Juhi said as artistes, it's unfair to be questioned about incidents "just for a reaction" when they should be given time to truly understand the situation.

"We are going to work, thinking how to execute our task, then some incident happens somewhere and suddenly the media asks, 'what do you think about this?' We haven't understood the matter, people haven't understood the matter but you need a reaction.

"Let people understand, whether it's NRC or CAA, and what's is it about, why is this being talked about," Juhi told reporters.

The actor said it is sad that people talk about division more than unity.

"Everyone is quick to talk about dividing. Why don't we talk about uniting? Why does everyone say 'what is the government doing, why is it doing this?' but I say if you point one finger there then three fingers are at you.

New Delhi, Jun 6: Actor Ayushmann Khurrana took the internet by storm as he posted a picture of himself in the dark 'Joker' avatar on Saturday.

Artist Swapnil Pawar transformed Khurrana into the 'Joker' through his artwork which the actor posted on his Instagram.

"Do I really look like a guy with a plan? You know what I am? I'm a dog chasing cars. I wouldn't know what to do with one if I caught it ... I'm an Agent of Chaos!" Khurrana quoted a famous dialogue from the film 'Joker' in the caption.

The 35-year-old actor, who hasn't played an outright negative role in his career further revealed his fascination for negative characters in the caption.

"Sinister, menacing, evil, cold, conniving yet brilliant, genius - have always thought of playing a negative character like Joker. Thank you @swapnilmpawar for reading my mind and this incredible artwork!" he wrote.

Khurrana believes that though it is good to portray different roles and he would love to play a negative character but the message at the end should be positive.

"I will be happy to play a negative character. I would love to play a morally corrupt person. That will be out of my realm. But the message, at the end of the day, should be positive. I don't want to endorse wrongdoings on screen," he said.

The new look of the 'Article 15' actor won hearts as the post was flooded with scores of comments from his fans.
