Varun Dhawan is looking for that elusive hit; banking on Coolie No 1

Varun Dhawan's Street Dancer 3D has not been faring as well as he expected; Sunil Gavaskar to face the camera again?

Varun Dhawan is said to be upset by the reaction to his latest outing, Street Dancer 3D. Remo D'Souza's dance flick's box office collections are not measuring up to his expectations. Those in the know say the blame game has begun. His last outings — Kalank (2019) and Sui Dhaaga (2018) — proved to be damp squibs. Now, he is banking on his upcoming Coolie No 1. Dad David Dhawan is helming the remake of the 1995 comic caper. Guess, daddy knows best.

Sunny acted in the Marathi film, Savli Premachi (1974), and played himself in the Naseeruddin Shah-starrer Malamaal (1988). Wonder if buddy Goswami can tempt him to face the camera again?
