Varun Dhawan celebrates his 32nd birthday today, April 24, and the Kalank star has come a long way in Bollywood. From making his big debut with Student of the Year alongside debutants Alia Bhatt and Sidharth Malhotra, Varun Dhawan has garnered praise and a huge fan following to now, when he was recently seen in the big budget, star-studded period-drama, Kalank.
Varun's friends from the industry, including bestie Alia Bhatt took to social media to wish his happy birthday. Alia Bhatt posted an Instagram story that read: "Happiest birthday my partner in crime⦠hope you have the most amazing day filled with wonder and joy⦠and hope you have an even better year."
Alia and Varun have been close friends since they made their debut together in SOTY, and recently starred opposite each other in Kalank as well. Where Kalank failed to make a mark despite the starry cast and intriguing storyline, SOTY established Alia and Varun as two young stars to watch out for.
