Talking about his work, Varun's most recent release was Kalees's action thriller, Baby John. The project is an official remake of the 2016 Tamil film Theri which was made under the direction of Atlee.

While Varun is seen in the titular role, Keerthy Suresh, Wamiqa Gabbi, Zara Zyanna, and Jackie Shroff also play significant parts in the drama.
