"It is a modern-day tribute to DDLJ, it is a modern 2014 version of DDLJ so there's no melodrama. Today's youth reacts very differently to authority. So, it's not a copy, it's a humble, small tribute," Varun told reporters on Tuesday while promoting the film here.
"This is a 2014 family film. India has progressed a lot, almost a revolution happened. The youth brought about a big change, there's a lot of fire, lots of angst. So we are bringing out that part. So we are trying to show what a modern-day family film is." he said. (Also read: I will never call myself a star: Varun Dhawan)
