Shocker : Varun Dhawan gets slapped 22 times

Bollywood’s newbie heartthrob Varun Dhawan is all set to woo his female fans once again. The actor will soon be seen playing the endearable character of ‘Humpty in ‘Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania’. Varun Dhawan claims that it is a tribute to ‘Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge’. He gets to romance Alia Bhatt in the movie, but unlike Shahrukh Khan of ‘DDLJ’. Varun gets slapped 22 times in the film.

As per sources, Varun Dhawan plays the role of a Delhi boy in ‘Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania’. He gets slapped as many as 22 times in the film. Varun said “I know it sounds funny. While actors flaunt saying that they have kissed the actress several times, I can say that I have been slapped 22 times in the film.”

Varun further added that, at one point of time he was fed up getting slaps in the film and was confused whether he was hero or villain in the film. “I too was surprised to see that whoever comes in the scene, puts a slap on my face and goes. I once asked the director that whether I am the hero or villain in the film as everyone comes and puts a slap on my face. But then the director convinced me that this was the demand of the script.”

Varun had his revenge of all the slaps by slapping Alia many times off-screen.
