Actress Parineeti Chopra says she felt proud after having lunch with actor Varun Dhawan.
The actress took to micro-blogging site Twitter to talk about the 'privileged' moment. Filmmaker Karan Johar also joined them for the lunch.
"Karan and I honoured and privileged to have lunch with The Varun Dhawan. @karanjohar varundvn," Parineeti tweeted.
The "Ishaqzaade" actress also shared a photograph with all the stars. While Parineeti is seen wearing a black dress, Varun sports a cool look with a denim jacket. Karan is in an all-black outfit.
Meanwhile, Varun is all set for his dance-based film "ABCD 2". The sequel to the 2013 hit "ABCD - AnyBody Can Dance" features Shraddha Kapoor, choreographer-director Prabhudheva and international dancer Lauren Gottlieb.
Directed by Remo D'Souza, the film is slated to release on June 19.

Excel Entertainment plans first premier of 'Dil Dhadakne Do'
Brainchild of Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar, Excel Entertainment will be hosting a premier of Zoya Akhtar's "Dil Dhadakne Do" in Mumbai for the first time.
They are planning to host a special screening of their next film on June 3, read a statement.
Excel Entertainment is said to have never held a screening of their film before its release. But constant requests from friends and families compelled them to make an exception for "Dil Dhadakne Do", said a statement.
Along with Farhan, the film has an ensemble cast of Anil Kapoor, Shefali Shah, Ranveer Singh, Priyanka Chopra and Anushka Sharma.
"Dil Dhadakne Do" is about a dysfunctional Punjabi family on a cruise across the Mediterranean and how they discover love during their voyage.
The film will hit the silver screen on June 5.
