What is the story about?
Varun Dhawan is all set to capture the passion and resolve of Colonel Hoshiar Singh Dahiya PVC, and his intense looks in the poster, teaser and the recently released song prove that the actor is going all guns blazing. Varun pays tribute to the bravery of Col. Hoshiar Singh Dahiya, who led his troops with unflinching courage during the 1971 Indo-Pakistan war, and was awarded the Param Vir Chakra for his heroism, India’s highest military honour.
Border 2 is all set to release in cinemas on January 23, and recently, the makers released the song Ghar Kab Aaoge and certain sections of the viewers began to troll Dhawan and this is what he had to reply to one user when asked about the same- "This question made the song a hit. Everyone is enjoying it. God is great."
Border 2 producer blasts the trolls
Nidhi Dutta pointed out the smear campaign against the film and called the trolls anti nationals as they targeted the song and the actors.
On X, Nidhi reposted a tweet that reported, "The LATEST TARGET of this paid smear campaign is #VarunDhawan. Certain Instagram influencers are clearly doing this on instructions, running a full-fledged agenda to malign Varun in #Border2…From BODY-SHAMING to selectively targeting his expressions, everything feels forced !! especially when his performance is actually perfectly suited for the film. This dirty game needs to STOP because no matter what #Border2 is gonna take BUMPER START EVERYWHERE."
The inside business of online hate
What makes this moment disturbing is not criticism itself, but the nature of it. The conversation about Varun Dhawan has gone from his work into demeaning territory. Instead of discussing performance that they are yet to watch, audiences are being fed commentary obsessing over his height, facial expressions and physicality, often laced with mockery and crude language.
A leaked message circulating online exposes how easily “hate” can be manufactured. A circular doing the rounds appears to show a pitch for paid collaboration, explicitly encouraging creators to push a negative narrative against Varun Dhawan under the guise of critical film commentary.
The irony is that Varun is an actor who has consistently shown range, evolving with each project. Very early on in his career, he surprised audiences with Badlapur and later, October.
There’s also something deeply hypocritical about how the same industry that celebrates “real conversations” turns a blind eye to this.
Varun Dhawan has earned his place through years of work. Orchestrating negativity through lazy, paid outrage masquerading as honesty needs to stop, not just for Varun Dhawan, but for the future of film discourse itself.
