A still from Dilwale.
Mumbai:
Actor Varun Dhawan said that he was nervous about doing action sequences in Dilwale initially, but had a great experience performing daredevil stunts in the Rohit Shetty-directed film.
Rohit, 42, is known for directing great action sequences in his films.
"It is for the first time that I was doing action. I was nervous. I was enthusiastic as well. I wanted to do it myself but Rohit sir asked me to put pads. Overall it has been a great experience," Varun told reporters at the trailer launch event of Dilwale in Mumbai on November 9.
The 28-year-old Student Of The Year star said that working with Rohit in Dilwale, with Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol in lead roles, was a dream come true.
Before sharing screen space with them, Varun worked as an assistant director for My Name Is Khan, that featured the hit Bollywood pair.
"It is a crazy moment to be part of a Shah Rukh-Kajol film. I feel it is my destiny. I was an assistant director on the sets of My Name Is Khan. I always wanted to work with Rohit Shetty. Three years into my career and I am living this dream. God has been great," Varun said.
Dilwale is Shah Rukh and Varun's first movie together.
SRK too couldn't stop praising the rising star.
"Varun is the most hardworking and dedicated actor I have worked with. He is going to be the stand out point of the film when it releases," he added.
Varun plays Shah Rukh's younger brother in Dilwale and will be seen romancing Kriti Sanon. The film releases December 18.
