Varun Dhawam attended the trailer launch event of his niece Anjini Dhawan's debut film Binny And Family on Friday in Mumbai. Speaking of his niece's acting debut, Varun Dhawan said, "She is my niece but I am here as sort of an elder brother... It is a good film that is why I am here. Like my father never launched me because that tradition is not there in my family, he doesn't believe in that. We have no hand in what she has done and it will be wrong for me to take credit for any of her success," news agency PTI quoted Varun as saying. Varun is the son of veteran filmmaker David Dhawan.
