Varun Dhawan, who is currently promoting his upcoming film Baby John, recently opened up about the time when he was stalked by a fan who entered his home. The situation became scary enough for Varun to call the police. Varun shared that the woman who was stalking him was the “wife of a very powerful man.” He also recalled some incidents where a fan has kissed him forcibly, pinched his butt, which made him feel violated.
Talking to Ranveer Allahbadia on his YouTube channel, Varun shared that a woman once entered his house without his permission. “And that lady was the wife of a very powerful man. I can’t say what position… but a very powerful man, and she was being catfished. Someone was talking to her using my name. She knew everything about my house and she thought I was going to leave my family. It became very scary,” he recalled, and shared that they had to call the cops afterwards. “She came with someone, and it became a family thing, and there were female constables who came in and they handled it,” he shared.
Varun said that he has had fan encounters where “people have run away from their homes, stayed three nights on a beach, we have had to call the cops.” He recalled another incident where a fan kissed him forcibly. When asked how he felt about it, he said he “did not like it.” On being asked if he felt “violated,” Varun said “a little bit.” He also shared that in the past, people have “pinched my butt.”

Varun said that when an incident of this nature happens with him, he immediately starts thinking about how it must be worse for women. “I feel bad for the women because I straightaway put myself in their position. If this is happening with me, it must be worse with them,” he said.
