Hrithik Roshan has kickstarted the preparation for Krrish 4 and will also take the role of director this time. As per the recent buzz, Priyanka Chopra will join Krrish 4 as well and will reprise the role of Priya. The rumours of Priyanka the superhero film were already making rounds after Hrithik, in an event, talked about his meeting with the actress and Nick Jonas.
As both Priyanka and Hrithik became a hit on-screen pair with Krrish and Krrish 3, the makers decided to cast Priyanka again. According to a report by Pinkvilla, Krrish 4 will continue the story of Krrish 3 and Priyanka will play the role of Priya again.
A source told Pinkvilla, “Hrithik, and Priyanka are a successful pair and have an excellent work relationship. It was more of a no-brainer for PC to come on board Krrish 4, as the story continues the journey of characters from Koi Mil Gaya to Krrish, Krrish 3, and now the fourth instalment. The actress was bowled over by the vision of Hrithik Roshan to take the franchise forward, and was ecstatic to see him take over the challenges of directing the film.”
The source further added, “There are some projects which are designed keeping VFX in mind, but Krrish 4 is a film where the inception of VFX stems from the story, which is magical. Pun intended.”
Earlier, Rakesh Roshan, who is the director of the Krrish franchise, talked about passing the torch to Hrithik as he becomes director. While speaking to Pinkvilla, Rakesh Roshan shared, “I am passing the baton of the director of Krrish 4 to my son, Hrithik Roshan, who has lived, breathed and dreamt about this franchise since its inception with me. Hrithik has a clear and a very ambitious vision of taking Krrish’s journey forward with the audience for the next decades.”
