Bollywood actor Varun Dhawan who is popular as a romantic hero revealed that his upcoming movie ‘Baby John’ is all about the personality transformation of a father with an “innocent face” when pushed to the limits - an analogy that’s likely to remind the viewers of a “serious character” he played in revenge-drama ‘Badlapur’ starring Nawazuddin Siddique.

The actor told IANS that ‘Baby John’ revolves around women’s safety and explores how an innocent father is driven to extreme lengths to protect his daughter. "They cast me for this role because they wanted someone with an innocent face, to show the transformation of a father pushed to his limits," the actor IANS. Recalling real-life incidents like the Nirbhaya case, Dhawan explained that such issues are woven into the film`s narrative. He described one of his powerful dialogues, “Haath laga ke bata mere beti ko” (Just try to harm my daughter), which he said came straight from the heart and was approved in a single take.
