His bio further read: "From headlining 300-crore mega hits to exploring niche, content-driven films, my journey has been about balancing creativity with audience impact. Whether it's leading a sports team in Student of the Year or exploring supernatural worlds in Bhediya, I believe in pushing boundaries and creating value for every stakeholder in the entertainment ecosystem."

On Thursday morning, Varun shared his first post on LinkedIn, calling it a 'new chapter'. Addressing his LinkedIn community, the actor wrote, “As someone who's been working in the film industry for over a decade, I’ve had the privilege of learning a lot about the importance of hard work, teamwork, and constantly evolving.”

The lessons I’ve learned on set, from directors, producers, and co-actors, have shaped how I approach challenges, collaborate, and constantly push myself to do better."

Within the first 24 hours of joining the platform, Varun had amassed over 20,000 followers on LinkedIn.
