Creative sparring for the Roshans

At 68 and 44 years of age respectively, Rakesh and son Hrithik Roshan have over two decades between them — a whole generation apart. And seemingly the two aren’t on the same wavelength when it comes to making films together.

While Hrithik did pay heed to his father’s advice in the early years of his career, the actor isn’t giving in to papa Roshan’s advice about movies these days.

The two are currently working together on Krrish 4, which is slated for a 2020 release. Guddu (Rakesh) and Duggu (Hrithik) aren’t seeing eye to eye when it comes to casting, as well as other nuances of the film. They’ve had difference of opinion too, and have expressed the same.

But then all’s well in Roshan land. “Hrithik has worked with his father in four films till date — Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai, Koi Mil Gaya, Krrish 2 and Krrish 3. Now, he has certain ideas on how the script should flow and what kind of a cast he should be working with. But it’s obvious that Hrithik has metamorphosed into a good actor and has a better understanding of the medium with today’s cinema in place. He wants his director dad to make the film into an intelligent one, rather than spoon-feeding the audiences. There’s also a difference between them about the casting, but it’s all in good spirit or on a creative level,” says a source.

This creative buzzing about could help Krrish 4 scale greater heights. We approve!
