Actor Varun Dhawan has seemingly taken a dig at trolls who had been making comments against him since before the release of Border 2, making it clear that online noise does not affect his mindset. The actor has been under scrutiny ever since the film’s song, Ghar Kab Aaoge, was released, with sections of social media turning his expressions and smile into memes.
The actor recently took to his Instagram Story to share a picture of himself being surrounded by fans. Varun wrote, “Border 2 (National Flag emoji). Love will always triumph hate. Thank you (folded hands emoji).” Have a look here:
Previously, Varun had reacted to the criticism while speaking at the Braves Of The Soil tribute trailer launch for Border 2, where he emphasised that he believes
in letting his work do the talking rather than responding to negativity.
“I believe that you shut down the noise and just let your work do the talking. Yeh sab cheezein chalti rehti hai (All these keep happening). It doesn’t really matter. Main iske liye kaam karta hoon. Main jis cheeze k liye kaam karta hoon woh iss Friday ko pata chalega (I don’t work for this. What I work for, you will get to know this Friday),” Varun said.
Varun further stressed that his faith lies in the film itself and not in box-office numbers or social media opinions. “Mujhe film pe bharosa hai. Ek achi film banana bohut important hai. Obviously, numbers yeh sab cheezein mera kuch lena dena nahi hai isse. But I believe ki humne ek achi film banayi hai (I believe in the film. It’s very important to make a good film. I’m not concerned with numbers. I believe we made a good film). That’s the most important thing,” he said.
He added that audiences ultimately care about entertainment when they step into theatres. “Log jab theatre mein jaate hai, sab bhool jaate hai (When people go to theatres, they forget everything). They want to be entertained, that’s it. Aur kuch maine nahi rakhta hai. Main use school se aata hoon jaaha aapka kaam bolta hai (Nothing else matters. I come from the school where a person’s work speaks),” he added.
When Border 2 was finally released, the film received largely positive reviews. Many social media reviews also noted how Varun delivered a composed performance.
