Actor Varun Dhawan has said his latest film ‘Badrinath Ki Dulhania’ is the first family love story after ‘Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham’ from Dharma Productions. The banner, often criticised for making ‘urban centric’ films, hopes to reach out to every section of the audience with their latest film.
“Most love stories done by Dharma are very urban, and I feel after K3G, this is the first family love story that Dharma has made. This is a love story set in the heartland and Dharma hasn’t done such a film till date” Varun said during an interview for the film, which releases in theatres next weekend.
The actor also said his producer, Karan Johar, jokingly calls the film as Dharma’s Rajshri – referring to the many family entertainers Rajshri Films has made under Sooraj R Barjatya.
“Karan always fools around saying ‘Badri is Dharma’s Rajshri’. Most of the problems in the film are typical Indian problems which we face on regular basis.” Varun said.
He also credited the director of the film, Shahshank Khaitan, who hails from a small town which makes him see romance differently from those who have grown up in urban cities.
“I think that is what sets Badri apart from other films. Our director (Shashank) is from a small town and his way of seeing romance and love story is very different from the way an urban person would see it” he added.
‘Badrinath Ki Dulhania’ also starring Alia Bhatt, releases in theatres on March 10.
Its not a family film
Its a massy luv story
Good to know… if its good I’ll go with my entire family to watch it. I hope it ends the trash that Dharma has been churning out in the name of films. Ok Jaanu was utterly boring. The audience is bored of live in relationships and sex scenes now.
Not interested ,I m bored of Kjo rom coms ADHM ,Ok janu now BKD….
Youngsters shd avoid this they shd try something new( not like rangoon) doesn’t matter u fail
Happy that varun is making a gritty thriller like badlapur
Judwaa 2 is looking good tho like his comic timings..
feels good
All the best the whole BKD team??
Not sure of his judgement about movie after he called Dilwale as Inception of India. A very good actor, but not the smartest for sure!
I think many didn’t see the video of Varun comparing dilwale to inception,
anyways all the best to the whole team
BKD gonna rock big
love u Varun
varun is the smartest actor in younger actors
he know the taste of indian audience thats why he hasn’t seen any failure in his film career
whatever i think varun is 10 times more entertainer than ranbir kapoor
ranbir kapoor is talented actor but entertainment wise he is not doing comedy films
like ajab prem ki gajab kahani
This movie looks like a sureshot 100cr grosser. BKD and Judwaa 2 will launch Varun to superstardom.
He also said that he would love to be a superstar like Akshay kumar. U didn’t mentioned that
it’s a movie rooted in India So it will definitely work …
all top 5 biggest grossers of 2016 R original scripts rooted to India :
dangal ..Biopic
sultan..Full Desi
airlift ..real life incident
ms dhoni ..Real biopic
rustom ..real life incident based
the day Film makers will start writing original scripts ..Bollywood will start growing
there is one great article written by BOI today about some directors who don’t Make Original Movies and get influenced from European movies …anurag basu, imtiaz Ali, Debakar benerje, Vishal bhardwaj ??? all proving to be big loss for producers .
Trying to use SRK legacy to make his film a superhit. Badri is a love story not a family movie. But I’m glad to see that it’s set in a traditionnal background instead of all these “modern” romance like OK Jaanu.
Ya just as Dilwale was your inception…. Remember your comment
Watched the trailer Kong: Skull Island, That’s what i felt,
Great trailer to get entertainment plus paisa vasool….bhai saab this is life time experience…watch it in 3D u will realise where bollywood waste there money on…tere jese hajar stupid idiot he jo baking someone like lalia ghat who she has no education background..who can not answer simple general knowledge question…who dropped out of education at age of 18..aesi gatiya behuda banti he hamare young generation ki idol…lol grow up India..

Every Dharma film this century has been pure filth especially those featuring some has been washed up Phankha Salesman…!

It will be a hit n it will also be nice to see Alia work with a young fresh star as opposed to her last outing where she was seen giving life lessons to some has been washed up degenerate gambling loser Phankha Salesman…!
It will be superhit film another 100 crore film coming
Badrinath ki dulhaniya will be utter flop..
I m 100% sure tat badrinath ki dulhaniya will be utter flop…
