Debutante Anjini Dhawan, Varun Dhawan’s niece, recently shared that she never requested David Dhawan to launch her. Read on to find out why!
Varun Dhawan’s niece, Anjini Dhawan, is all set to make her Bollywood debut with Binny and Family. Recently, the Dhawan family showed their love and support for her after the trailer’s release. In a recent interview, Anjini revealed that despite coming from a filmy background, she never had the courage to ask her uncle, David Dhawan, to launch her. She explained, “The mantra in our family is that you’ll achieve what you genuinely deserve.”
Speaking to News18 Showsha, Anjini was asked about Varun’s debut, noting that like her, he was not launched by their uncle, David Dhawan. Anjini shared that the idea of asking her family to handle her debut never crossed her mind, as it was never a topic of discussion in their household. She admitted she didn’t have the guts to approach David with a request for a launch. “The mantra of our family is that you’ll achieve what you genuinely deserve. And once you do, you’ll have everyone’s love, support, and blessings,” she added, saying that’s exactly what happened in her case.
Anjini expressed her joy at having a star like Varun in the family, but she doesn’t feel any pressure to match his success. She finds Varun’s career highly inspiring and has never felt burdened to reach his level.
Interestingly, Anjini didn’t inform her family about being cast in Binny and Family until after she had signed the film. She explained that she held back the news to avoid getting too many opinions, as she wanted the decision to be entirely hers. Confident in her choice, Anjini believed Binny and Family was the perfect project to kickstart her career, as the story resonated with her personally.
The film delves into the dynamics between three generations of a family and the communication challenges they face. It stars seasoned actors like Pankaj Kapur, Himani Shivpuri, Rajesh Kumar, and Charu Shankar. Anjini admitted feeling nervous about working alongside such experienced talent.
Binny and Family is set to release on September 20, 2024.
