Actor
Varun
Dhawan
has
slammed
the
reports
of
comparing
himself
with
the
Khans
over
not
going
for
digital
release
for
his
upcoming
films.
Earlier,
it
was
reported
that
Varun's
forthcoming
film
Coolie
No.
1
will
release
on
an
OTT
platform.
Now
a
media
portal
reported
that
Varun
and
his
dad
David
Dhawan,
who
also
happens
to
be
the
director
of
Coolie
No.
1
had
a
disagreement
over
the
releasing
platform
of
the
film.
A
source
informed
Bollywood
Hungama,
"While
David
and
his
co-producer
Vashu
Bhagnani
feel
going
digital
is
a
viable
solution
at
the
moment,
Varun
Dhawan
doesn't
agree
as
he
doesn't
want
to
be
labeled
an
OTT
actor,
at
least
not
yet.
Apparently,
Varun
feels
that
until
the
Khans
go
digital,
why
should
he?"
Varun
was
quick
to
rubbish
such
reports
around
him
and
his
upcoming
film
and
tweeted,
"Maybe
until
I
don't
give
you
an
interview
you
shouldn't
write
on
my
behalf
sir."
On
a
related
note,
Coolie
No.
1
also
casts
Sara
Ali
Khan
in
the
lead
role.
The
film
is
a
remake
of
Govinda's
1995
classic
film
of
the
same
name.
It
would
be
difficult
to
say
if
the
film
would
impress
the
audiences,
because
the
film
has
already
started
garnering
negative
comments.
Wondering
why?
Well,
the
film
features
star
kids
in
the
lead
roles
and
currently,
audiences
are
hell-bent
to
boycott
films
starring
star
kids.
Going
by
the
past
records,
be
it
Sadak
2,
Gunjan
Saxena:
The
Kargil
Girl
or
Khaali
Peeli,
all
films
received
flak
from
netizens
owing
to
its
star
cast.
So,
only
time
will
tell
whether
Coolie
No.
1
will
work
in
favour
of
Varun
and
Sara
or
it
will
meet
with
the
same
fate
as
Alia
Bhatt,
Janhvi
Kapoor
and
Ananya
Panday.
