The country is enjoying the IPL festival and Varun Dhawan is clearly having a moment! Hosted by Dhawan, his cricket quiz show ‘Dugout Dishoom’ has emerged as a massive hit on Dream11, attracting a mindblowing viewership of nearly 4 million views per hour across all six episodes, taking the total viewership to a whopping 36.4 million views! For approximately an hour's show surrounding cricket, and clocking 7.8 million views as the highest viewership, this achievement is no small feat! 

What makes Dugout Dishoom even more watchable is Varun Dhawan’s infectious energy, and his drive to click with the audience through cricket, a sport that’s clearly seen as a festival in the country! Dhawan’s energy makes Dugout Dishoom feel less like a show and more like a hangout session with cricket at the heart of it! 

And with numbers like 4 million views per hour, Varun Dhawan has clearly found a winning pitch once again, and this time it’s off the field! 

Meanwhile, Varun is gearing up for the anticipated release of his upcoming rom-com, Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai, co-starring Pooja Hegde and Mrunal Thakur. Directed by David Dhawan, the film is billed as a lighthearted entertaining watch with David Dhawan’s signature directorial style. Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai releases in theatres on June 5.
