SCOOP: Varun Dhawan s new co-star will spend a lot of time with him now

If you see Varun Dhawan s beautiful new co-star accompanying him on dinner dates and movies, don t jump to conclusions. Director Shoojit Sircar has instructed Varun to spend as much time as possible with Banita Sandhu.

Varun Dhawan of course is more than happy to oblige. A very close friend of his who happens to be a very attractive co-star says, Varun makes heroines feel very comfortable. There is no hint of crossing the line since he s in a relationship (with Natasha Dalal).

Contrary to reports, Shoojit Sircar s new film cryptically titled October doesn t have a limited space for its leading lady.

Sources say October is an intense love story portraying love in dark shades never seen before. According to sources, It s as intense as the love relationship in the Telugu hit Arjun Reddy without the sex, drugs and alcohol. Varun s character will be shown to be so high on love, he won t need any intoxication. And the girl is with Varun in every frame.

Says Shoojit, It s a very important role and we ve chosen the girl who we think is pitch-perfect for the part. Banita Sandhu is from the Wales. I chose her because I am very confident about her abilities. She is brilliant.

While Shoojit is not willing to divulge details about the love story on-record it can be said without a shred of doubt that October would be a love story unlike any other seen in Hindi cinema. The audience won t be counting kisses in this one for sure, says the smirking source.
