Something wrong between Hrithik and Rakesh Roshan

Among the current crop of Bollywood actors, Hrithik Roshan is one cool dude who has been long successful in staying away from regular controversies. But time has changed.

Hrithik who shares a wonderful relationship with director-father Rakesh Roshan is facing tough times. The father and son had a rift. It started with Hrithik’s closeness to Barbari Mori, following which Sussanne left the house.

The cracks in relationship have been now on the sets of ‘Kites’ too. Rakesh Roshan is known to be a good director but Hrithik seems to have his own take. ‘Kites’ is to be edited and Hrithik wants to have it his way. Rakesh sits on the edit; meanwhile, Hrithik is keen to have his inputs.

Hrithik and Rakesh Roshan weren’t supposedly on talking terms with each other for long, but they recently spoke after months. However, with things still taking time to regain normalcy, Hrithik and Sussanne are living in a posh five-star hotel at Juhu.

Rakesh Roshan to direct another Krissh film

What will he direct next? Rakesh Roshan has more or less decided to make another super-hero film. "But we've to make sure that the screenplay goes beyond what we did in Koi…Mil Gaya and Krissh. And also all the other super-hero films that have come from Hollywood lately. The genre, I feel has been done to the optimum. The fight between a super-hero and a super-villain has to be pitched right. The content has to be really strong."

Hrithik had expressed a desire to play the super-villain. "But that is not possible," laughs Rakesh Roshan. "We need another big star to play the super-villain. The fight has to be evenly pitched." But before that in June, Rakesh Roshan starts his film with Anurag Basu. "He's very talented. I saw his Gangster and Metro. He definitely has a great script-sense."

Although the trailers of Rakesh Roshan's production, Krazzy 4 were supposed to start from Friday, enthusiastic exhibitors in Mumbai began screening the trailers from Wednesday. "I've had a tremendous response." Rakesh Roshan denies there was any problem between him and Shah Rukh during the item song that they shot for Krazzy 4 earlier this week. "There were two costumes to be changed, and we did them. He finished it with much grace. It's come out really well. Now Hrithik will be shooting the same song in February. But while Shah Rukh's version will be in the film, Hrithik's will be for the promotion and then in the end-titles."

Rakesh Roshan says Krazzy 4 has shaped up really well. "And I'm proud to say my daughter Sunaina is the co-producer. She attended all the shootings and was there hands-on in the project."
