Varun Dhawan recently opened up about his love story with wife Natasha Dalal and his bold with his pet dog Joey. The actor also shared how Joey helped him prepare for fatherhood.Talking to Twinkle Khanna and Kajol on their chat show Too Much, Varun said, "I fell in love in Natasha when I was in 5th standard, when I saw her for the first time at the basketball court the first time…In school we didn’t take it seriously but when we became friends, I found her to be kind and an amazing human being, which I felt I didn’t have those traits. So, I always looked up to her for the traits she has as a human being. I just stare at her playing with Lara and then she says, ‘Stop staring, now you hold her.'"Spilling the beans on his bond with Joey and how he prepared him for Lara, he added, "I personally changed a lot after I got my dog Joey. He would poop and pee…I came to a point where I could do anything for Joey. And I don’t say this in front of the camera to sound cool but I don’t differentiate between my dog and my child. It’s the first time I have had a dog. That bond which I have with him, I don’t think I can have that bond with any other living being."On the work front, Varun is currently promoting his movie Sunny SanskariKi Tulsi Kumari with Janhvi Kapoor, Sanya Malhotra and Rohit Saraf. After this, he has Border 2 in his pipeline.
