Bollywood actor Varun Dhawan is all geared up for his second collaboration with choreographer turned filmmaker Remo D'Souza. The duo has teamed up for the third instalment of the hit ABCD franchise titled, Street Dancer 3D, which also stars Shraddha Kapoor in a lead role. Earlier, the 32-year-old actor suffered foot injury while he was trying to perfect a single step for the upcoming movie. Now, the latest buzz has it that Varun Dhawan fainted on the sets of Street Dancer due to eighteen hours of continuous shooting.
"Varun was battling cold and fever for a long time, but continued to shoot nonetheless, well aware that his portions had to be wrapped up before July 26. On Tuesday, he was to film a gruelling dance sequence with his co-actors. Following intense prep, he was shooting for the number when he got dizzy and fainted," a source was quoted as saying to Midday.

"Knowing that they had lost out on a day, Varun told Remo sir that he would do a double shift. He reported to the set at 1 pm and worked till 7 am on Friday morning," the source said
