Bollywood actor Varun Dhawan and his wife, fashion designer Natasha Dalal, continue to prioritize their daughter's privacy over public curiosity. The couple, who welcomed their first child, a daughter named Lara, on June 3, 2024, have consistently chosen to shield her from the intense glare of the media spotlight. Despite being in the public eye for over a year, they have only shared partial glimpses of Lara, carefully avoiding a full-face reveal on social media or during public appearances.
Varun Dhawan's Stance on Lara's Privacy
During a recent fan interaction on the social media platform X, Varun Dhawan directly addressed the ongoing curiosity about his daughter's face. A user questioned the actor about his deliberate choice to keep Lara's identity private. In a thoughtful and firm response, Varun stated, "I would rather leave that decision to her. Social media should be her choice, not something I decide for her." This statement underscores the couple's clear intent to protect their child's autonomy and allow her to make her own choices regarding public exposure when she is older.
Focus on Work: All About 'Border 2'
While fiercely guarding his family's private life, Varun Dhawan is equally passionate about his professional commitments. The actor engaged with fans about his highly anticipated upcoming project, the war drama Border 2. He shared insights into the film's narrative, stating, "Border 2 is based on the 1971 war, and as we all know, it was a war filled with a lot of casualties on both sides. There were many sacrifices made by our soldiers to win, so there are some amazing stories."
Star-Studded Cast and Release Plans
The film boasts a powerful ensemble cast. Varun Dhawan will be seen sharing the screen with veterans and rising stars alike. The lead roles feature Sunny Deol, Ahan Shetty, and Diljit Dosanjh. The movie is directed by Anurag Singh and also stars Mona Singh, Medha Rana, Sonam Bajwa, and Anya Singh in pivotal roles.
On the production front, Border 2 is presented by Gulshan Kumar and T-Series in association with J.P. Dutta’s J.P. Films. The producers are Bhushan Kumar, Krishan Kumar, J.P. Dutta, and Nidhi Dutta. Mark your calendars, as the film is scheduled for a grand theatrical release on January 23.
Varun Dhawan's approach highlights a growing trend among celebrity parents in India who are drawing a firm line between their public careers and their children's right to a normal, private childhood. His clear message to fans and paparazzi reiterates that Lara's digital footprint will be a choice she makes for herself, not one dictated by her parents' fame.
