Varun Dhawan Found Drunk On The Sets Of 'Badrinath Ki Dulhania' Desi "We love films and storytelling as a people. It is like a human compulsion to listen and to tell stories." - Mychael Danna Sometimes, it is difficult to make a great film, as not every actor can do full justice to the script and put it in the right emotions needed for the same. Recently, Varun Dhawan is shooting for his upcoming film 'Badrinath Ki Dulhania' with his co-actress, Alia Bhatt in Jaipur and Kota (Rajasthan). The film is directed by Shashank Khaitan, produced under Dharma Productions. This 29-year-old actor prefers to stay away from alcohol unless it is a party. But, he asked for an emotional shot with Alia Bhatt, he gulped down neat pegs of whiskey. His performance impressed the director and he praised him for the shot. Varun knew that he could not give his best without having those pegs. Varun quoted that, "I had a few drinks as the scene required that kind of an effect. I was high for a while, but everything was okay."
Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt are back to recreate their chemistry.
Varun and Alia, who were seen together in "Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania" in 2014 have now reunited for Shashank Khaitan's new film 'Badrinath Ki Dulhania'.
