A controversy erupted on social media after a Delhi-based influencer accused actor Varun Dhawan of arranging fake reviews for his upcoming film, Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai. The actor responded to these allegations, sparking a public exchange that has garnered widespread attention. On April 14, influencer Simran Bhat posted a clip claiming that Dhawan had orchestrated fake reviews for his film, which is scheduled for release in theatres on May 22. The teaser for Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai was unveiled just the day before.
Varun Dhawan REACTS To Influencer Alleging Fake Reviews For Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai Teaser
The controversy began when Simran shared an Instagram reel recounting an incident at Rajiv Chowk Metro station in Delhi. She alleged that two individuals approached her and her friend to request a review of Varun’s teaser. She said she declined because she hadn’t watched it, but the two reportedly insisted, offering to tell her what to say—prompting her to question the authenticity of such reviews.
Simran further explained that they urged her to watch the teaser immediately. She declined due to a lack of time. Expressing her disbelief, she asked, “Bhai, Varun Dhawan ke itne bure din aagaye kya ki usko fake reviews lene pad rahe hai? What the hell?”
Varun Dhawan REACTS To The Reel
Varun Dhawan responded to Simran’s reel with a comment. He said, “Hope you get the views you really want with this video (sic).” Simran replied, asserting that she doesn’t need to resort to such tactics for views. She is already satisfied with her current reach.
VD’s comment
She then shared Varun’s comment on her Instagram Stories, urging him to verify with his PR team. The influencer believed the incident could harm his image. Additionally, she posted a screenshot of another comment—allegedly deleted by Varun—that questioned why it was removed.
