Coolie No 1 feels like homecoming to Varun Dhawan. After trying his hand at middle-of-the-road cinema with October (2018) and Sui Dhaaga (2018) in the past few years, the actor returns to the familiar territory of comedy with the remake of the 1995 hit of the same name. This time, he is on firm footing with director-father David Dhawan helming the laugh riot.

"Dad is the king of comedy. He has tackled the genre for three decades, and has found success in each decade. When you are working with such an accomplished director who knows the genre and its details so well, you know [you're in good hands]. I feel safe when I work with my father," says the actor, eager for a hit. The father-son duo have an enviable track record so far, having delivered hits in Main Tera Hero (2014) and Judwaa 2 (2017).
