David Dhawan Hints At Retirement: The veteran filmmaker of Bollywood, David Dhawan, who has created many of Hindi cinema’s most memorable comedies, is leaving behind a trail of mixed emotions in the film industry. He mentioned that his next movie, titled “Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai“, will possibly be the last movie that he will ever direct due to health reasons and an inclination towards simplicity.
A Potential Goodbye to Bollywood
While giving interviews for his next movie, David Dhawan was very honest when he mentioned that his forthcoming movie may be his last ever. Through his statement, he conveyed that after directing this film, he wanted to live life simply by being a good father to his son, Varun Dhawan.
A Strong Father-Son Collaboration
Yet again, Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai proves to be a team-up between director David Dhawan and actor Varun Dhawan that never fails to churn out crowd-pleasers. Although they share a personal relationship, it does not influence his professional demeanor on the sets. It is only when cameras start rolling that his son is looked at only as an actor.
David Dhawan also appreciated the progress made by Varun Dhawan. In the past decade in the business, Varun has shown his versatility as well as emotional depths through his performances in recent times.

A Blend of Old School Filmmaking and New Age Cinema
While talking about his method of filmmaking, the ace director opened up. According to him, unlike modern-day films that have pre-written scenes from beginning till end, older films were made based on the trust of the cast. He cited examples of some big stars who have taken up roles without getting a complete script read to them.
This is something that will become the hallmark of Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai.
Emotional Moments Behind the Scenes
The production process involved some difficulties. As per the reports, David Dhawan said that he had some health problems while making the movie, which made the process difficult for him. At that time, Varun Dhawan supported his father in the best way possible and took care of him by ensuring that he got proper treatment all the time. The director called his son a “complete family man”.
