How Hrithik Said Yes To ‘Vijay Dinanath Chauhan’

Over 6 feet tall, deep voice, perfectionists, excellent actors in their respective genre of acting… and that’s where the similarities end. Being offered a role previously acted by Amitabh Bachchan, a legend of Indian cinema is surely a scary experience. Anyone would be doubtful to take it up. Hrithik Roshan is no exception. 
Like the rest of us, Hrithik grew up watching Amitabh act in different roles.
Acting in the remake of his film, with a comparison bound to occur, can be a strong motivation to say ‘NO’. And that’s what he said to Karan Joher, the producer of AGNEEPATH when it was first offered to him. But Karan Johar did not give up to Hrithik’s denial, asked him to ‘At least hear it’.
Karan Malhotra, the director, was asked to go to Spain and narrate the script to him, with a belief that Hrithik wouldn’t refuse after hearing about it. Hrithik, the ever considerate and a person who hates waste of time felt guilty about his denial for a movie to his friend Karan and with the director, travelling all the way to Spain for a three hour talk.
As Karan Malhotra started narrating the story, it started drawing Hrithik into its charm. An actor who is known to demand a retake of the shoot if it is not up to his satisfaction, who constantly while on break during shoot continues to rehearse the scenes in mind, had no trouble in imagining this as a future hit.
A story inspired by a real individual and geographical basis (Mandva) and same names, after all, who can ever forget ‘Vijay Dinanath Chauhan’ and ‘Kancha’?
The change in Vijay’s journey and his completely different character treatment, made Hrithik attract to enact in the story completely. Adding his personal touch and the instincts which have made him a super star, it just took Hrithik precisely 5 minutes to say a ‘YES’ to act in the movie.
A challenge is now what is before Hrithik Roshan… and so let’s wait for Hrithik Roshan to come on screen with his Vijay Dinanath Chauhan persona, for the year’s most awaited AGNEEPATH.

Sanjay Dutt Speaks On His Gym Partner, Hrithik Roshan

Sanjay Dutt admits that he is working out with actor Hrithik Roshan these days, and has renewed ties from the time they last did a film together in Mission Kashmir.
“It’s such a pleasure to work out with Hrithik,” says Sanjay, who has taken to the gym with a vengeance. He says that he has been giving a lot of strenuous exercises for Hrithik to follow and was amazed to see the younger actor perform it effortlessly.
“We’ve been sharing exercising tips with each other. I was quite surprised to see how effortlesslyhe took to some of the workouts that I suggested, and they were not easy ones. He is quite a sincere and fast learner. He is as passionate about his workouts as he is about his acting,” says Sanjay, who’s been working out with Hrithik for about a month now.
Since Hrithik has worked on Dutt’s workout tips, would Dutt do the same by shaking a leg with the nimble feet dancer. “I am not going to dance with him. I am no match for him. I feel he is the best dancer among all the leading actors that we have today and I am not going to dance with him at all!” laughs Dutt.
The actor says that he is so fond of Hrithik’s dancing that he kept aside his work and caught up with the dance reality show that Hrithik as hosting. “Watching him emerge out of a water fountain (in his show) was absolutely mesmerizing. He is the perfect choice for a dance reality show. I have been a fan of his dancing right from the time I saw him in the song ‘Ek Pal Ka Jeena’ (film Kaho Naa Pyar Hai). I remember seeing him as a kid when I used to meet (filmmaker) Rakesh Roshan, but we didn’t interact then. It was only when we did the film Mission Kashmir (where Hrithik played Sanju’s son) that we bonded a lot on the sets,” he adds.
As an actor, the one thing about Hrithik that impressed Sanjay the most was that he did not flinch one bit in doing retakes over retakes on the sets of the film that they are currently shooting together. “There were so many retakes and he was giving as many re-takes as needed and that to with equal amount of gusto and energy. Well, it’s good to see him, and may be we can all learn a thing or two from him as an actor and a performer,” he ends.
