Actor Keerthy Suresh is making her Hindi film debut with the Varun Dhawan-starrer Baby John, and in a recent interview, Varun said that he took the responsibility to protect Keerthy when they were shooting in Mumbai. Varun said a lot of male actors would ask him about Keerthy, but since she was in a committed relationship, and had not made it public, he had to dodge them.

In a chat with Filmfare Middle East, Varun said that “the bonding between me and Keerthy is the word marriage.” “She was preparing for marriage, I was married. From earlier, she was like , when I become a wife, I will this type of wife and look at her what kind of wife she has played in the film. She is the wife of the year,” he said, to which Keerthy responded, “Kuch bhi!”

Varun then said that Keerthy is a “heartbreaker” and said that “nobody knew about her relationship for many years.” Keerthy added, “People very close to me, they knew. Atlee and his wife, Varun knew from the time I met him, from two years. Otherwise, a lot of my very close friends knew, but we try to keep it very private.”

Keerthy recently tied the knot with her longtime boyfriend Antony Thattil in Goa. “In Mumbai, when we were shooting… so many people would message me about her, so many heroes. I can’t be like, ‘Here’s her number, let’s meet,’ because eventually, it’s my responsibility to take care of her,” Varun said, and concluded, “So the joke is Baby John, Bhabhi jaan.”

Directed by Kalees and also starring Wamiqa Gabbi, Baby John is set to release on December 25.
