Varun on the Box Office Clash
In a recent Q&A session on X (formerly Twitter), a fan directly asked Varun, “Kantara se darr nahi lag raha? (Aren’t you scared of *Kantara?*)”
Varun calmly replied, “Release dates are set by the production team. We are just focusing on our film and trying to entertain people. I hope that on October 2, everyone is laughing and celebrating.”
He also reflected on the mixed reception of his previous film, *Baby John,* featuring Keerthy Suresh. Addressing whether it was his first disappointment, Varun stated, “Yeah, it didn’t work out. Everyone worked very hard on it. Therefore, *Sunny Sankari Ki Tulsi Kumari* has a brand-new script. I really hope everyone enjoys it on October 2.”
*Sunny Sankari Ki Tulsi Kumari* vs. *Kantara: Chapter 1*
*Sunny Sankari Ki Tulsi Kumari* stars Varun Dhawan alongside Janhvi Kapoor, Sanya Malhotra, Rohit Saraf, Akshay Oberoi, and Maniesh Paul. The plot revolves around Varun and Janhvi’s characters, who engage in playful rivalry to elicit jealousy from their exes, portrayed by Sanya and Rohit, leading to comedic chaos.
In contrast, *Kantara: Chapter 1*, also directed by and starring Rishab Shetty, serves as a prequel to the successful 2022 film *Kantara.* It unfolds a rich narrative driven by folklore and mythology, featuring performances from Gulshan Devaiah, Rukmini Vasanth, and Jayaram.
Both films promise an exciting box office face-off on October 2, challenging audiences to choose between romance and comedy or myth and mystery.
