On the other hand, his horror-comedy Bhediya also did well at the box office. The film’s total collection was Rs 66.65 crores. Though the movie didn’t cross the 100 crore mark, it definitely recovered the budget amount. Speaking about his recently released movie Bawaal, the film has already become the talk of the town despite having a theatrical release. Having said that, all 3 films which were released post pandemic have been extremely profitable for producers.

Varun thanks fans for the love

After the release of Bawaal, the Kalank actor penned a note, expressing his gratitude towards the fans. He wrote, “Ajju bhaiya ne Mahual bana diya. Thank u for giving bawaal a place In Your heart. I have never received so many calls for any film of mine. The impact this film is having on people is incredible. It’s a conversation starter about the fake image industry and how today we are all in someway slaves to this ideology. Thank u for watching and enjoying Ajju and his family. You are Bawaal.“
