Don't listen to rumours about Shuddhi, says Varun

Actor Varun Dhawan, who is stepping into Salman Khan's shoes for ‘Shuddhi’, has decided to maintain silence regarding the project. "I will not say anything about ‘Shuddhi’. People have said a lot about it, but as an actor, my job is to act, just talking about is not going to help. So, all that I will do is act and let the audience decide," Varun said.

To be directed by Karan Malhotra, ‘Shuddhi’ also co-stars Alia Bhatt. Earlier, producer Karan Johar had confirmed Hrithik Roshan and Kareena Kapoor Khan would play the lead in the film, and then Salman Khan was taken on board.

But, just last month, Karan Johar announced that he had finalised Varun and Alia. Varun said, "There are lots of new things in this film and there are also lot of rumours going around with this film. But all I will say is don't listen to any rumours. It's a completely different film." ‘Shuddhi’ is expected to hit theatres during Diwali next year.
