Bollywood’s heartthrob Varun Dhawan is gearing for the release of his period film ‘Kalank’ co-starring Alia Bhatt. The actors are busy with the promotions of the much-anticipated movie and were recently spotted on the reality television show ‘Super Dancer 3’. They had a lot of fun interacting with the participants.

Varun Dhawan shared a funny anecdote from his childhood with his young fans. He revealed that he wanted to build abs when he was a young boy.

Varun Dhawan said, “My mother used to give me beatings as I was a naughty kid. Amongst my brother and I, I was the one to receive more beatings and get scolding. Actually, I received it from mom, dad and Rohit (Varun’s brother) – all three. I started making abs because of this reason, because when I used to get hit, it hurt, and I thought that once I made abs it won’t hurt anymore.”

He also added, “I think after a certain age when mothers hit you, it doesn’t hurt anymore. It’s more like you are hurt if you hurt her.”

The best part of the whole confession was when Varun went on to cite Sonakshi Sinha’s iconic dialogue from Dabangg and said, “Thappad se darr nahi lagta Maa, aapki insult se lagta hai.”

We do love the ‘Judwaa 2’ star’s sense of humour.

On the work front, Varun Dhawan has Karan Johar’s ‘Kalank’ co-starring Alia Bhatt, Sonakshi Sinha, Aditya Roy Kapur, Sanjay Dutt and Madhuri Dixit. The movie is set to release on April 17, 2019.
