Bollywood’s very own Greek God Hrithik Roshan celebrates his 50th birthday today. We bring a special treat for his fans. Now, you can binge-watch the most iconic movies of your favourite actor on his special day. The versatile actor has proved himself in the Hindi film industry by giving a stellar performance in these blockbuster movies.
In a field that is quick to declare Hrithik Roshan a leading man in one way or another, he remains mysterious in another. Mainstream hero? Check. Dependable performer? Check. Dancing abilities? beyond this world. Hrithik Roshan, an actor and star who shines in every role and genre, manages to tick all the boxes and, in the process, fade into the spotlight. Here are five of his greatest roles to date.
Celebrate Hrithik Roshan with his top 5:
5. Zindagi Na Milegi Dobaara:
Director: Zoya Akhtar
Release date: 15 July 2011
Arjun Saluja, played by Hrithik Roshan, is the traveller who always has his work with him. He will pull out his laptop and answer calls in between. In Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, he initially comes across as obnoxious and patronizing—too exhausted to tolerate one more word.
4. Krrish:
Director: Rakesh Roshan
Release date: June 23, 2006
Is there another mainstream actor from Hindi cinema who could pull off a Krrish? Hrithik Roshan’s wonderful presence still adds a tonne of texture and joy to the screen, even after all these years. Selling the story of an innocent village boy who discovers how to use his unique abilities while also learning about the harsh realities of the outside world is a challenging role.
3. Jodhaa Akbar:
Director: Ashutosh Gowariker
Release date: February 15, 2008
As the man behind the extravagance and opulence, Hrithik Roshan was amazing; he carved out a unique persona motivated by sincere loyalty and integrity to advance the interests of his kingdom. Additionally, Hrithik masters body language. Additionally, he plays a wonderfully restrained and tender character in the first half of the movie, where he is gradually starting to fall in love with his wife Jodhaa. His best screen time is still this one.
2. Kaho Naa… Pyaar Hai:
Director: Rakesh Roshan
Release date: 14 January 2000
The debut film that turned Hrithik Roshan into an overnight celebrity. Undoubtedly a dream come true, but it also contained a lot for a first-time performer. Given that Hrithik was portraying two characters in Kaho Naa… Pyar Hai.
1. Dhoom 2:
Director: Sanjay Gadhvi
Release date: 24 November 2006
Let’s not pretend that anyone in the franchise that started before his arrival and went on to have another sequel did anything close to what Hrithik Roshan did in Dhoom 2. Hrithik Roshan performed a conman with a carefree flair and ease; he was one of the few antagonists who actually made us want to support him. It could only have been accomplished by Hrithik with such effortless charisma.
