Varun Dhawan on bring trolled
Varun Dhawan responded to actors being trolled this year by saying, "Who is left? Everyone is being trolled this year. We just now wait that another celebs gets trolled so we can get off the spotlight. Like when my trolling began, Arjun Kapoor became happy."
As soon as Varun Dhawan said that, Tanmay Bhatt along with comedians Rohan Joshi, Piyush Sharma, Zakir Khan and Kullu burst out laughing.

Comparison with Dhurandhar
During the conversation, Tanmay playfully trolled Varun regarding his box office track record. Drawing a comparison with the immense success of Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar franchise, he remarked, "The way you are promoting your film (Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai) is commendable, because it takes a lot of guts to put in that much effort just to secure even 1% of Dhurandhar's box office collection."
Varun laughed at this and replied, "I think that after Dhurandhar, we all feel a certain pressure, like, 'Bro, we need to do something too.'"
