Varun Dhawan on doing TV: I need to be a little older

With Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan and Amitabh Bachchan already part of TV shows, the young generation isn’t too far behind. Arjun Kapoor debuted with Khatron Ke Khiladi, Sonakshi Sinha did Indian Idol Junior 2 and is now gearing up for Nach Baliye 8 and Shahid Kapoor was a judge on Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 8. 

But given that Varun Dhawan is already one of the most popular young actors, it would be fun to see him on TV as well. Varun says he’s ‘completely open to the idea of TV’. Varun says, “Even if it’s like something in the digital space — maybe a digital show, or a web series, if a great offer comes, why not?” 

He had offers that weren’t “all that exciting”. He admits, “I have been offered a couple of game and dance shows. I had been asked to host some. But it’s not something I am really keen on doing.”

He explains, “I will take it up at a time when I feel I can make a big difference. I also need to have that much time to give the project. But I really respect the medium. So, maybe, I will do it when I am a little freer. Right now, I don’t think time permits me do so. Also, honestly, I need to be a little older before I take it up (laughs loudly).”
