It's not an exaggeration to say that Hrithik Roshan is extremely picky with his films.
The actor, who has clocked 22 years in the industry, is ready with his 25th film, Vikram Vedha, an official remake of the Tamil hit.
Ask him if he feels left behind as other actors do more films than him, "How can I be left behind when I am the only one on my path? I am walking alone, as we all are..."
You return to the big screen after 2019's War. What advice did you get about the choice of your next project after that film's phenomenal success
No, I haven't gotten any advice.
I think it's because I hold myself very, very, responsible for doing my very best, and I think people somewhere know that. So they leave me to it.
But did that add pressure?
You know, War puts a different kind of pressure on me.
It was so much adulation for Kabir that I got lost.
I didn't know who and what I should take next.
It was a very confusing time for me.
I need to be comfortable being me.
You know, it's okay that I am not as good as Kabir or Vedha. I am not. I am not that guy.
These are handmade characters.
They (makers) make them and I do them, but they're not me.
That's my job. It's important to differentiate me from the person I am and the persona that I project on screen.
If I don't separate the two, I'll live in chaos.
Why don't we see you more frequently on screen, especially now that we have more options thanks to OTT? I want to do more films, I just can't find the content.
(Directors) Gayatri and Pushkar are the best minds I have come across.
Such incredible writing! If I get writing like this, I will do four or five films a year, if I could.
But I am a slave to my instincts.
