Hrithik Roshan feels afraid of turning into a director for Krrish 4

The actor, who is currently in New York attending a meet-and-greet with fans, admitted he is nervous and afraid of turning into a director for Krrish 4.

Hrithik Roshan is currently in New York for a meet-and-greet with fans as part of his Rangotsav event. He spoke about taking on the responsibility of a director for the first time in his career for his film Krrish 4. So far, the Krrish franchise, starting with Koi… Mil Gaya (2003), followed by Krrish (2006) and Krrish 3 (2013), was directed by his director-father, Rakesh Roshan. However, Rakesh Roshan handed over the baton to his son last month.

Hrithik Roshan says he is afraid and nervous.

The actor said that although he is still working to better his craft as an actor, he feels he is “a filmmaker deep inside.” Speaking about debuting as a director with Krrish 4, he said, “I don’t know what to say, but I am afraid and nervous. I feel like I’m back in kindergarten. It seems I have to grow up in a different way all over again.” He added, “It’s going to be a new challenge — uncertainties, seeking, searching. I’m sure there will be moments where I feel like I’ve made the worst decision ever. And in my alone moments — the moments when I feel fear — I will remember you all, and I will remember the love. So I need your blessings.”

Hrithik Roshan meets Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas in New York.

While in New York for the event, the actor revealed that he met his Krrish co-star Priyanka Chopra and her husband, Nick Jonas. Their meeting has sparked speculation about whether it was connected to Krrish 4.

Apart from Krrish 4, Hrithik is gearing up for the release of his upcoming film War 2, directed by Ayan Mukerji. The film also stars Kiara Advani as the female lead and Jr NTR as the antagonist. It is set to release in theatres on August 14.
