Non-stop shoots,
prepping for his movie roles, endorsements, interviews and travelling to exotic
places—there are no dull moments in the life of Hrithik Roshan and now he is on
cover of The Man Magazine, January 2017 issue.
His earlier
choices were defined by looks and commercial viability. He’d rather have been
on the sets of a film that he thought wasn’t ten on a scale of ten, but was at
least 7.5. He prefers being creative in other ways and doesn’t always run after
career and money. He keeps himself enthusiastic and loves to be engaged in
activities like painting, travel the world or anything that can drive him
crazy.
He’s undoubtedly a
perfectionist, but Hrithik Roshan at 42 figures he can survive a dud or two
like Siddarth Anands action film Bang Bang with Katrina Kaif that tanked and
Ashutosh Gowarikar’s exquisite, but deplorable Mohenjo Daro.
This year and some
previous year have been harsh on the actor, who suffered a back injury and then
had a brain surgery in 2013.
Right now Hrithik is
at peace with himself and he feels centered and content. He is having fun boot
camping with his boys, going on road trips, zip lining at 300ft in the air
through forests, going for 4 a.m. safaris in Africa and sleeping
under the stars in the desert. Hrithik Roshans son Hridhaan and Hrehaan, are
fascinated by the thought of being actors. “I tell them it’s going to be their
decision, but they are open to exploring the idea,” he reveals.
Hrithik
in his upcoming film Kaabil plays a blind man and there’s tremendous pressure
to make moviegoers choke on their popcorn, and it looks like stars will fall
into places for him.
