Varun Dhawan has deftly balanced his career between commercial and small scale projects, but the actor says a mega-budget multi-starrer like "Kalank" comes with a lot of pressure.
His last two releases -- "October" and "Sui Dhaaga" -- had small budgets but a lot is on stake with "Kalank", which he says is his most expensive film till date.
"My last two films had really small budgets and the reach was bigger... There was no pressure of them doing well that much in monetary terms. In this film there is commercial pressure. This is a film for which I had prepared a lot ... So I am more on the edge," Varun told PTI in an interview.
"A lot of eyeballs are there on this film because it is an ensemble and all this attention is making me anxious. Everyone is going to watch and and all I wanted to do is be good in it. Fear of failure makes me anxious."
