Mumbai, March 21 (IANS): Actor Varun Dhawan is ready with his second film "Mein Tera Hero", in which he will be seen romancing two actresses - Ileana D'Cruz and Nargis Fakhri - but the actor says that he would not date an actress in real life.

Varun said: "I know we are in a profession where our personal life is always in the limelight. All I would like to say is that I would never date an actress."

After a successful debut with Karan Johar directed "Student Of The Year", Varun teamed up with his father and successful director David Dhawan for his second venture.

The senior Dhawan known, for making blockbusters like "Aankhen", "Hero No. 1", "Coolie No. 1" and "Biwi No. 1", went through a bad patch in his career.

Recalling David's downfall, Varun, 26, said: "I remember there was a time when my father's films didn't do well and caused his downfall, and we faced financial crisis."

During the trying times, the family used to "pray that his film does well. It was very scary and we used to be very nervous at that point of time."

Varun is currently busy promoting "Main Tera Hero", a remake of Telugu movie "Kandireega". Produced by Ekta Kapoor's Balaji Motion Pictures, it will come out April 4.
