When Karan slyly approached the topic of his girlfriend, Natasha Dalal and their various public spotting, Varun pointed out to Karan that even he had met her on some occasions.

Varun also admitted, “I'm dating Natasha. We are a couple. I plan to marry her.” When probed further about marriage if he’s in the line after Deepika Padukone-Ranveer Singh and Priyanka Chopra-Nick Jonas, Varun shared, “I am not competing with any of the other celebrity couples.” Karan, who had launched Varun in Bollywood with the film, Student of the Year, mentioned that it will be an emotional moment for him when Varun gets married.

Karan said, “I will feel that I'm giving my son away. I will play the K3Gtheme, meri saanson mein tu hai samaya. Mera jeevan toh hai tera saaya. And Lali, me and David ji will have a aarti plate.” Varun and Natasha are often captured by the shutterbugs on dinner dates, movie screenings and other various occasions. On May 8, 2018, Varun made it official when he walked hand-in-hand with Natasha at Sonam Kapoor Ahuja and Anand S Ahuja’s reception party. In fact, the reports also suggested that he officially introduced Natasha as his girlfriend to his friends from the industry.

In an interview, Varun talked about Natasha and said, "She is a normal girl, she is a normal kid. She wants to live a normal life and it is my job to protect her." In another interview, he had said, “I see it reaching a good place. She's quite a handful so full credit to her for sticking by me. She's one of the best people I've come across in my life.” (Also Read: Natasha Dalal Spends Time With Boyfriend Varun Dhawan's 'Bhai' and 'Bhabhi')

When asked in an interview if Natasha is fine being clicked with him on their outings, Varun retorted, “I am cool about it. In fact, I have always been cool about it. There is nothing to hide. I just don't want the focus to shift from my career to the relationship. That's why I don't talk much about it. What can one say about spending time with loved ones? I'm not denying anything at all, just that I don't like to discuss it.”

Varun and Natasha have been in a relationship for many years now. They have known each other before Varun became a star and Varun tries to keep his relationship with Natasha well-guarded from the limelight. But this doesn’t stop them from going out and make media appearances together. When asked why he doesn’t talk about Natasha and their relationship, "I feel it takes away from your personal life. That's the only reason I don't talk about it because whether you are in or not in, people are going to write about it, there will be blind items."

Speaking about the same at Neha Dhupia’s chat show, Varun had stated, “I have never hidden about my relationship, I have been spotted at several occasions. I have never spoken about it openly, that’s because the media makes different stuff and versions with it. They make you fight, break up, patch up, this and that. And she is not from the film line and as much as I can protect her from the crazy ogling, logging everything. I am protecting my personal life because for me that’s my sanctity. When I am done with shooting and home, that’s my reality check.”

Earlier this year, there were rumours that Varun and Natasha have decided to take the plunge. Refuting those speculations, Varun cleared the air by saying, “Honestly, I would love to do that, but I don’t know how my parents would react to it. Being Punjabis, they would want to do it in the traditional way. I had move into my new house, and I want to enjoy this part of life for a couple of years before I think of the next step.” (Also Read: Varun Dhawan Shares Pic With Girlfriend, Natasha Dalal For The First Time On Friendship Day)
