Actor Varun Dhawan says his forthcoming Sui Dhaaga has a storyline that he has always wanted to explore.
Dhawan was present at the trailer launch of Sui Dhaaga along with co-star Anushka Sharma, director-writer Sharat Katariya and producer Maneesh Sharma on Monday.
“When I got the script initially, I didn’t have any dates... So I [met the makers] to say that I don’t have dates for the film. But when I read the script and Sharat’s writing, I was just so blown away that I was laughing, crying. It took me on a ride,” the actor said.
“I [have] always loved family films, I always wanted to do Indian films, the kind of films that reach every part of the country. And when I read the script I knew I could not leave this film. I had to do the film and become Mauji,” Dhawan said, referring to his character.
The film was shot in Chandari, where the characters reside.
“The location adds a touch to the film and I believe it provided a lot of help to the actors to understand their characters and mould into them,” director-writer Katariya said.
Produced by Maneesh Sharma and presented by Yash Raj Films, the film will release in India on September 28.
