Hrithik Roshan in Krrish 4
Some roles hold a special place in an actor’s filmography. To Hrithik Roshan, whose résumé is embellished with diverse characters, Krrish is that role. The franchise that began with Koi Mil Gaya in 2003 has now reached its fourth instalment. While Krrish 4 was initially announced as a 2020 release, the film has been delayed due to the narrative’s demand for superlative special effects. Amid reports that the superhero film will roll in the second half of next year, Hrithik says prep is on in full swing on the Rakesh Roshan production. “We aim to make a film on par with global standards. The script is being locked, the research work is on, and we are building the technical team. Making films of this magnitude takes time,” says the actor.
While the last three offerings in the franchise were helmed by Rakesh, there is no confirmation yet on who will wield the directorial baton for the upcoming instalment. Even as he stays mum on the matter, Hrithik assures that the new movie won’t be lacking in dedication, stating, “You can expect a lot of hard work being put in by each and everyone working on the future of Krrish.”
