Varun Dhawan says it is a great feeling to be an actor but due to their popularity they are often in line of fire on Twitter.
The 29-year-old actor, who conducted a Q and A session on the microblogging site, adds celebrities are both adored and hated on social media platforms.
One of the fans asked the "Badrinath ki Dulhania" star, "How does it feel to have 3.91 million followers and be an inspiration? (sic)"
Varun replied, "It feels good to be an actor but on Twitter you get a lot of love and hate and everything #VarunSays."
When asked if actors had a dark side to them, Varun says, "I don't know about others but I definitely do."
On receiving a great response to his recently released film opposite Alia Bhatt, he says, "It's incredible. People are reacting to the message in the film which feels great #VarunSays."
And when one of the fans asked him to give a title to a potential third part of the Dulhania franchise, the actor says, "Maybe I can be the girl ka dulha" and adds producer Karan Johar can only reveal if another sequel will be in works soon.
In this quick tete-a-tete, Varun reveals he draws inspiration in the film industry from directors like Shoojit Sircar, Rajkumar Hirani, Aanand L Rai, Nitesh Tiwari and Shashank.
