Actor Varun Dhawan played a football enthusiast in his debut movie "Student Of The Year", but he never thought the game would give him a chance to meet his cricket idol Sachin Tendulkar in real life.

According to sources, both the celebrities met each other at the Coca-Cola under-15 football tournament final match and interacted for the first time.

Varun will soon be seen in father David Dhawan's directorial project "Main Tera Hero", which goes on floor this June and is slated to release April 4, next year.
