Shraddha Kapoor and Varun Dhawan, who have been childhood friends, reunited on screen in Stree 2, with Varun making a cameo appearance as his character from Bhediya. In a recent interaction, Shraddha shared a nostalgic and amusing memory from their childhood when she proposed to Varun at the age of eight and was rejected.
Speaking on a podcast with Shubankar Mishra for his YouTube channel, Shraddha said, “Bohot purani kahani hai. Logo ko pata hai ye. Varun ne mera proposal reject kiya tha. It is very funny. Hum humare dads ke shoot pe gaye the. Mujhe bachpan me Varun pe chhota sa crush tha. Hum mountain top pe gaye, waha pe khelte khelte gaye. Maine bola, ‘Main ek baat bolungi Varun, main ulta bolungi to aap uska meaning samajh jaana.’ Maine bola, ‘You love I.’ Usne bola, ‘Mujhe ladkiyan pasand nahi hain.’ Aur wo bhaag ke chala gaya fir (It’s an old story that a lot of people already know about. Varun rejected my proposal. It’s funny to think about. We had joined our dad during one of their shoots. As a kid, I had a small crush on Varun. While we were playing, we reached the top of a mountain. I said, ‘Varun, I will say something in a reverse way and you’ll have to figure it out.’ So I said, ‘You love I.’ He replied, ‘I don’t like girls.’ Then he ran away).”
Shraddha Kapoor and Varun Dhawan have a loyal fan following due to their on-screen chemistry in films like ABCD 2 and Street Dancer 3D. Fans were thrilled to see them share the screen, even if briefly, in Stree 2. The film is part of Maddock Films’ horror-comedy universe, which also includes Bhediya. Fans have eagerly anticipated a crossover between Stree and Bhediya.
Stree 2, starring Shraddha Kapoor, Rajkummar Rao, Pankaj Tripathi, Abhishek Banerjee, and Aparshakti Khurana, is enjoying a dream run at the box office. According to the makers, the film has grossed Rs 283 crore worldwide within just four days of its release (including paid previews) and has become the third highest-grossing film of 2024.
