Varun Dhawan replaces Salman khan in Daddy-Daughter story!

Remember  a few months  ago  Salman Khan opted out  of a dance film to be directed  by Remo D’Souza about a single dad with two left feet who must learn dancing to join his 9-year old daughter on the  floor during a dance competition.

Salman, reluctant to do the  role from the start because he felt he couldn’t dance and also because he felt he was  too old for  the  part, took the first opportunity to opt out of  the project when  producer Ramesh Taurani offered  the superstar Khan Race  3. Salman simply cartlifted Remo d’ Souza and offered theSalman-Remo package to Taurani for Race 3.

 But if you thought Remo was done with his dance film , you better think again. It is  now reliably learnt  that Remo would be doing the dance film that he was supposed to do with Salman with a  new leading man Varun Dhawan.

Says a  source  in the  know, “When Salman  opted out of his dance film Remo d’Souza asked Varun if would do it,Varun happily agreed. They have collaborated very successfully on  ABCD2.Another dance film seems just the thing Varun needs to do after the quirky socially relevant October with Shoojit Sircar wraps up this year.”

The  source, however, is quick to point out that this  is not ABCD3. “This film has nothing to do with the ABCD franchise. Remo designed it for Salman. But Salman was reluctant from the start and had even recommended Varun for  the role. ‘This  character  sounds  more like Varun than me,’ Salman pleaded with Remo.”

 It looks after Judwaa filling up Salman’s shoes has become a way of life for Varun.
