Actors Varun Dhawan and Shraddha Kapoor have shared a great bond of friendship since childhood owing to their filmy background and the close working relationship between their parents, David Dhawan and Shakti Kapoor. Recently, Varun shared a hilarious incident of Shraddha getting him beaten up by her friends for rejecting her proposal at the age of eight.

Varun Dhawan in a candid conversation with YouTuber Shubhankar Mishra shared how he fell in love with Natasha, his now-wife. He also shared the back story about Shraddha Kapoor's proposal rejection, when both were in 8th standards.

He said, “When I had seen Natasha for the first time, I think I did have the feeling that ‘she is the girl’. I was in sixth grade. Yet, I knew there is some connection.” Then, the interviewer asked Varun that's why he rejected Shraddha Kapoor. To which, the Baby John actor responded, “No ya. We were eight. At this age, what guy likes a girl? I was simply confused about why was she taking me to the mountains… Whatever happened there, we all know. But, let me tell you the story post that."

Varun revealed how even after two years of the incident Shraddha remembered the rejection and had him beaten up by her friends on her tenth birthday bash. He continued, “It was Shraddha’s tenth birthday party. She had invited me to her birthday and she was wearing a frock. At that time, there were around four guys who were in love with Shraddha. It was a birthday party, so we were all playing in the jumping bag. Suddenly, I was surrounded by these guys, who questioned me, ‘Why don’t you like Shraddha?’ I was like, ‘I am interested in dance competition.’ They were like, ‘No, no, you have to like her.’ I am not even kidding. These were the guys who liked her. They started fighting with me. I was beaten up. She made them beat me up because I was not accepting her proposal. But, I also beat them up. It was a very filmy scene. And then I went on to take part in the dance competition and even won it. She came third.”

He recollected the memories of the day when he regretted turning her down and eventually both became good friends.

“When Shraddha became a teenager. She had become extremely beautiful. We were in different schools. There was a dandiya competition at her school, where I had participated. There too I was in trouble as I hit someone with dandiya stick. I was running for my life. I was trying to hide when I saw this girl walking in slow motion. It was Shraddha Kapoor. That day, she looked extremely beautiful. That day, I regretted turning her down. We then became friends. This is a huge story. You ask her what happened next," Varun added.

Besides being close friends, Varun and Shraddha has shared screen space in movies like ABCD 2 and Street Dancer 3D, under the direction of Remo D'Souza. Recently, the duo collaborated for a song Khoobsurat in Shraddha's blockbuster film Stree 2.
