Hrithik will direct a film, confirms Rakesh Roshan

In an interview, Papa Roshan confirmed that Hrithik will soon be wearing the director's hat.

Mumbai: Considering the fact that Hrithik had taken immense interest during the making of his latest film ‘Kaabil’, we can safely say Roshan Jr has keen interest in direction and will soon be seen donning the role of a director.

Rakesh Roshan, whose eyes sparkle with pride every time he talks about his superstar son, confirmed to a leading daily that Hrithik is indeed interested in direction. He said, “Hrithik surely will direct a film, although I can’t say when. He has assisted me on several of my films before he was launched as a hero in ‘Kaho Na… Pyar Hai’. So you could say he has been training for direction for a very long time.”

Mr. Roshan refuted rumours of Hrithik and him being involved in the making of ‘Kaabil’ as it was completely ‘Sanjay Gupta’s baby’. Commenting on the issue, the producer said, “I went to the sets only on the first day to give the first ‘clap’. After that it was Sanjay Gupta’s baby. But yes, our involvement was there throughout, as Sanjay, Hrithik and I were on the same page. There were no ego issues among us.”

Roshan Sr is evidently proud of Hrithik’s achievements as an actor and cannot help but praise his son for all the work he has done in a short span of time.

“Kaabil will showcase how good an actor HR is. Just look at how many different characters he has portrayed in a short span of time,” said the father.
