Varun’s Next Is A Biopic On Arun Khetarpal

  • Varun’s Next Is A Biopic On Arun Khetarpal

Here comes one more biopic. The latest buzz suggests that Varun Dhawan will next be seen in a biopic titled as Ekkis.


It happens to be a biopic on Param Vir Chakra awardee Arun Khetarpal, who fought valiantly for the country during the 1971 Indo-Pak war and sacrificed his life. He was just 21. Hence the film has been titled Ekkis.


Shares a source, “Sriram Raghavan, who has brought out a different facet to Varun’s talent with Badlapur, is extremely fond of the actor.


He is currently busy writing the script of his next film which happens to be a biopic. Titled Ekkis, it will be produced by Dinesh Vijan. The Gen Y star has been spotted several times at Maddock office which also was the reason why many claimed he might replace Rajkummar Rao in Stree 2. But it’s not the case. He’s being considered for this film instead.”
