So, can we expect you to head to Bollywood soon? "I wouldn't rule that out. I have a lot of respect for Bollywood and the history of Bollywood," Dwayne told IANS here, while promoting his upcoming film "Jumanji: The Next Level"," he replied.

Referring to Varun, Hollywood's biggest action star said: "He is such a big fan. I've interacted with him before on social media. And I know, he is a big star in India… Yeah, so maybe one day, you never know, you could see me in a Bollywood action movie. That'd be a lot of fun because I know that we have a lot of wonderful fans in India, and we have talked about that. So, maybe one day (you could see me in a Bollywood movie)."
