The box office flop of Bollywood actor Varun Dhawan's most recent movie, "Baby John," has raised questions about how he is handling the setback. Despite having a budget of over ₹160 crore, the film, which was predicted to be a huge smash, has reportedly made less than ₹50 crore.

Even worse than Varun's last movie, "Kalank," which also had a poor box office performance, this is Varun's biggest failure. Because "Baby John" is a remake of the Tamil film "Theri," which many viewers had already watched, it did not draw in audiences despite initial excitement.

Recently, co-star Rajpal Yadav discussed Varun's response to the movie's subpar showing. He said that even if the movie was well-made, its box office prospects were harmed by the fact that it was a remake. Rajpal underlined that "Baby John" might have been among his greatest movies if it had been an original tale. Additionally, he explained that Varun is not depressed about the failure, but rather that he is still a committed and hardworking actor who takes chances on his projects.

The movie's ticket sales quickly declined after its Christmas opening. It had a great marketing effort and several good features, but it had trouble keeping up the momentum. Many people think that its performance was further hampered by competition from other popular movies like "Pushpa 2."

Varun Dhawan views this loss as a warning that not all endeavors, including those of well-known celebrities, will be successful. Even great hopes do not always convert into box office success in the unpredictable film industry.
