Bollywood actor Varun Dhawan says his upcoming film "October" came as a much-needed opportunity in his film career.
At the film&39;s trailer launch here on Monday, Varun said: "I was the last person cast in the film after meeting Shoojit Sircar. I think casting should happen that way... Not because one actor is doing good in films. When I heard the story, I was so moved by it that I felt the need of doing the film.
"I need the film more than anyone else in the room at this point of time in my career."
"October" promises a unique love story.
"When I sign a film, I look at the script more than anything, and how much the maker is putting in the film. In &39;October&39; Shoojitda, writer Juhi Chaturvedi and every one of our crew members put their heart and soul in it. I had to be a part of this film. They signed me for the film even before &39;Badrinath Ki Dulhania&39; and &39;Judwaa 2&39;," Varun said.
Besides being an emotional journey for him, the film turned out to be a learning experience for Varun.
"Dada Shoojit asked me what do I do when I wake up. I said, &39;As usual, I check my phone, I post things on social media&39;. Then he asked me not to do that, and instead observe a plant for 10 minutes. I started doing that and felt a huge change. I unlearned a lot... It was a very different experience," Varun said.
"October" is releasing on April 13.
