Badlapur
It
was
drastic
transformation
for
Varun
who
till
then
was
only
associated
with
fun,
goofy
characters.
As
Raghu,
a
man
hell-bent
on
seeking
revenge
for
the
death
of
his
wife
and
kid,
Varun
unleashed
his
never-seen
before
side
and
left
everyone
stunned.
Badrinath
Ki
Dulhania
A
character
which
could
have
gone
wrong
if
played
over-the-top!
But
Varun
perfectly
maintained
a
balance
and
brought
a
likeability
to
his
character
of
Badri.
October
Shoojit
Sircar
threw
a
challenge
at
the
actor
and
the
latter
passed
with
flying
colors.
Varun
shed
off
his
mainstream
trademark
and
gave
one
of
his
most
heartfelt
performances.
Sui
Dhaaga
As
a
simpleton
Mauji,
Varun
once
again
played
an
underdog
with
conviction
and
made
you
root
for
his
character
till
the
last
frame.
Kalank
Despite
the
film's
dismal
performance,
Varun
bravely
delved
deep
into
the
intensity
of
his
role
of
Zafar
and
portrayed
his
emotions
of
anger,
pain
and
love
perfectly
on
the
big
screen.
