Mumbai: Actor Varun Dhawan has said that time is more important to him than money. He stated that he is inspired by his father David Dhawan’s punctuality.
“If I am inspired by someone’s punctuality then it’s by my father. My dad (David Dhawan) reaches to certain place before time. If the shooting call time is 9.00am, he will be there at 8.00am, and you have to be on set at 9.00am sharp otherwise he will verbally abuse you. So, I have to be on the set on time,” Varun Dhawan said.
Being the son of a filmmaker, Varun Dhawan pointed out that he understands the importance of time. “I am the son of a filmmaker so I know importance of time – whether it’s the set of Street Dancer or Coolie No. 1, I always try to be on time. If I fail to do so, my manager also abuses me.
There are a lot of people who make sure that I do my work on time. In today’s day and age, people say that time is money, so in an actor’s life, too, time plays an important part. Professionalism has become important in today’s world,” said Varun, while interacting with the media during the unveiling ‘Varun Dhawan x Fossil Limited Edition’ of watches here Wednesday.
Varun insisted he thought time is more important than money. “None of us knows how much time we have left in life. So, time is everything and money is not everything,” reasoned the actor.
About the work front, he said: “This year, I have had just one release – Kalank – but next year I promise there will be a lot more. ‘Street Dancer releases in the first month and there is Coolie No. 1. There might be another release later in 2020,” informed Varun.
Varun is very happy that the legendary Amitabh Bachchan has been honoured with Dadasaheb Phalke award. “The most deserving Indian artist to receive this award is Shri Amitabh Bachchan ji. It’s really a proud moment for the entire film fraternity but I think he should have got this honour much earlier. He deserves every award that exists,” pointed out Varun.
