Popular actor Varun Dhawan was recently seen in the film 'Bhediya' which is having an amazing run on the box-office at the moment. Featuring Varun as a werewolf, the film also stars Kriti Sanon, Deepak Dobariyal and Abhishek Banerjee and it's been facing tough box office competition from Ajay Devgan's 'Drishyam 2'. Recently while speaking at IIFA press conference, Varun Dhawan called Ajay a rockstar and shared what he has learned from him.

The actor stated, "I like the way he handles his career, whether its success or failures, his expression remains the same. He is the MS Dhoni of actors. He is so encouraging to youngsters. I have to say this about him, when I had a string of hits and one film didn’t work, he was the first person to call me up and asked how am I doing."

Varun added, "I told him this is the first time (my film has not worked) and he told me, ‘It doesn’t matter, people love you, you are here to stay. It is part and parcel, keep moving on.’ He is an actor I really admire."

Before 'Bhediya', Varun was seen in the film 'Jugjugg Jeeyo' and his upcoming projects include 'Bawaal' in which he will share screen with Janhvi Kapoor.
