Varun Dhawan on his scary experience

Varun Dhawan spoke about a scary experience with a fan.

Speaking with Ranveer Allahabadia on his podcast, Varun recalled how the woman entered his house without permission. “And that lady was the wife of a very powerful man. I can’t say what position… but a very powerful man, and she was being catfished. Someone was talking to her using my name. She knew everything about my house, and she thought I was going to leave my family. It became very scary.” The actor said that he had to inform the police 'female constables came in and handled it'," he said.

The actor also revealed times when fans behaved inappropriately with him in public, including once when a female fan forcibly kissed him, and he felt 'a little bit violated'. Varun also added that people have pinched his butt in public places in the past. “I feel bad for the women because I straightaway put myself in their position. If this is happening with me, it must be worse with them,” Varun added.
