Varun Dhawan on fatherhood

Varun said, “I think when any individual, any man becomes a parent, for the mother it is a different experience, I feel she becomes a tigress, that moment only something happens. But, as a man, I’d say, that when we become parents, for some reason, you feel a protection towards your daughter. I am sure you feel for sons also, but towards the daughter… If anyone causes even so much (little) harm to her I’d kill them. I am dead serious when I say that. Literally, I’d kill them.”

He also reflected on his childhood experiences, and added, “I started understanding my father, David Dhawan, a little better, his insecurities, his hyper behaviour, his anxiety about, ‘Be home at time’. He’s calling my mom… He just wanted everyone to be together as a tribe, as a pack. I would never get it, I’d be like, ‘What is his issue?’ I am not a child, why does he want to keep me near him.”

About the baby

Actor Varun Dhawan’s wife and Natasha Dalal gave birth to a baby girl on June 3 in a Mumbai hospital. The actor took to Instagram to share the arrival of his baby girl. Varun captioned the post, "Our baby girl is here, Thank u for all the good wishes for the mama and the baby”. He shared the first photo with his daughter on Father's Day. Varun gave a partial glimpse of his baby.

Recently, Varun shared the name during a conversation with Amitabh Bachchan on his show, Kaun Banega Crorepati 16. During his appearance, the doting father showcased his creative side by singing a lullaby he had composed for his daughter. As the emotional moment ended, Varun shared that he and Natasha have named their little bundle of joy, Lara.
