  One of the Bollywood star Varun Dhawan whose latest outing was "Badlapur", reveals that these days audiences needs realistic cinema but "not a lot of fantasy".

  Varun said, "Right now, I feel the people want some other type of cinema. Some more thrill, something a little bit more realistic, not a lot of fantasy".  

  He added, "The time is now... the things that we were talking about five years back, saying to ourselves, 'This should be done in Hindi cinema'... that time has come now. Youths today have started accepting new ideas; people have become broadminded".

  He told, "I make it a point, whenever I'm promoting a film, that I go and try to connect with youth because I think my connect is more with them.”

  He said, "I don't really know if I am a youth icon. I would like to tell the youth: please choose Virat Kohli or Sania Mirza or Saina Nehwal. Please choose these people as youth icons because my youth icons while growing up were Sachin (Tendulkar), (Rahul) Dravid, (Saurav) Ganguly when they were playing.”

   

  He says, "I chose sports stars as my icons because you get to learn so much from sports in terms of determination, in terms of comebacks and the general attitude in life," said Varun, who made his debut with "Student Of The Year".

   

  He said: "Just be yourself! Individuality is the main thing. Express yourself, ask a lot of questions. Experience everything once in life, but don't do anything that you feel would embarrass your parents."

  He told, "Only when you get a platform, you can express and explore. Like I've done street plays and that really helped my confidence. There is a small crowd, but a few people watching you also helps. When we perform as actors, our confidence grows. We make our craft better”.
