Varun Dhawan will spend a lot of time with his new co-star

If you see Varun Dhawan’s beautiful new co-star accompanying him on dinner dates and movies, don’t jump to conclusions. Director Shoojit Sircar has instructed Varun to spend  “as much time as possible” with his colleague, Banita Sandhu.

Varun, of course, is more than happy to oblige. A very close friend of his, who happens to be a very attractive co-star, says, “Varun makes heroines feel very comfortable. There is no hint of crossing the line since he’s in a relationship (with Natasha Dalal).”

Contrary to reports Shoojit Sircar’s new film cryptically titled October doesn’t have a limited space for its leading lady. Sources say October is an intense love story portraying love in dark shades never seen before. According to sources, “It’s as intense as the love relationship in the Telugu hit Arjun Reddy. Varun’s character will be shown to be so high on love he won’t need any intoxication. And the girl is with Varun in every frame.”

Shoojit says, “It’s a very important role and we’ve chosen the girl who we think is pitch-perfect for the part. Banita is from Wales. I chose her because I am very confident about her abilities.”
