Varun Dhawan is currently enjoying praise for his recently released series Citadel: Honey Bunny. On the personal front, the actor is enjoying being a father to his daughter Lara. Varun has now opened up about being protective of his daughter. He even said that he would kill anyone who harmed him.
In a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter India, Varun Dhawan was asked how he connected with his character in the series Citadel: Honey Bunny, in which he plays a father to a young girl.
In response to this, the actor talked about the changes that come in a person after becoming a parent. For mothers, Varun said that they become like ‘tigresses’. And as a man, he mentioned feeling a protective instinct toward his daughter. Varun further added, “I’m sure you feel this towards the sons too, but especially towards the daughter, that if anyone harms her even that much (little), I will literally kill them.” VD said that he was completely serious when he said this.
During the interview, Varun Dhawan also shared that after becoming a father, he felt his father’s protectiveness. The Baby John star recalled that David Dhawan was constantly worried about him and asked him to come home on time. Varun said that his father wanted everyone to live together and he never understood the reason for it.
Recalling his feelings, Varun said, “I will never get this. I’d say, ‘What’s his point? What does he want? I am not a child; Why does he want to keep me?” He concluded by saying that now that he has a child, he understands his father.
Varun Dhawan welcomed his daughter with Natasha Dalal on June 3, 2024. She recently revealed that she has been named Lara.
