Varun Dhawan Not Injured ‘Seriously’, Says Father David Dhawan

There were reports  in the press that Varun Dhawan seriously injured his foot while negotiating an intricate dance steps for Remo d’Souza’s  Street Dancer.

 But Varun’s father  director David  Dhawan debunks  the injury theory.

Laughing he says, “It’s  nothing. Just a sprain in his ankle. How will he fracture  his foot  during dancing? It’s not an  action scene.But yes, the level of dancing in Remo’s film is something else. You require  tremendous dancing skills to try these steps.’

How high does David  rate his son as a dancer?  “Oh, very high. My boy can  out-dance  nearly everybody on the dance floor. He has  a natural flair for rhythms. You mark my words, this film will be a game-changer  as far as  dancing in  our films is concerned.”

Overnight,as  it were, Katrina Kaif  was replaced by Shradha Kapoor in Street Dancer.  David is happy with  Shradha. But he feels Katrina  is  a  dancer on another level altogether.  “I remember when she  was shooting for my film Maine Pyar Kyun Kiya  with Salman. Even that long ago her dancing left me shocked. Her  expressions were  to die for.”

 David hopes Varun and Katrina  would come together  in future. In  the meanwhile , Varunand  his co-star Shradha  Kapoor leave for London for the next schedule  of  Street Dancer.

“Varun knows what  is expected  of him. He’s working hard  on his dancing,” says Davidproudly
