Mumbai: Shraddha Kapoor and Varun Dhawan were childhood friends.
Days after the duo’s latest film ‘Stree 2’ released in theatres, Shraddha shared an amusing memory with Varun.
She had proposed to Varun at the age of 8, and was rejected!
Speaking with Shubankar Mishra on his YouTube channel, Shraddha recalled his crush on Varun.
“Bohot purani kahani hai… 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… Varun rejected my proposal. It’s funny to think about it now. 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 and Varun are a popular on-screen pair, having featured in films like ‘ABCD 2’ and ‘Street Dancer 3D’.
They have come together again in ‘Stree 2’, with Varun making a cameo appearance.
