You Rarely Get A Chance Where You Can Just Get Lost In The Fun Of The Moment: Hrithik Roshan

New Delhi: With the digital release of ‘Vikram Vedha’, Hrithik Roshan opens up about the journey of Vedha and the experience of preparing for the character. The character of Vedha presented Hrithik in a new light showcasing his versatility. ‘Vikram Vedha’ is the Hindi version of Pushkar and Gayathri’s 2017 Tamil film of the same name. Varalaxmi Sarathkumar, Shraddha Srinath, Vijay Sethupathi, and R Madhavan all starred in the original movie. It was released in 2017 and was successful at the box office.

Revealing the process of taking up Vedha in ‘Vikram Vedha’, Hrithik Roshan shared in a recent radio interview, “It was a terrific platform for me to set myself free. You rarely get a chance where you can just get lost in the fun of the moment. Vedha was such a character wherein you could let him loose, you could let him do whatever he wants to do. I have been skeptical of playing such characters in my life because I don’t think I was evolved enough to play someone with such composure. But when I was offered Vedha I thought I could do justice to this now because I’ve lived enough life to understand Vedha’s mind.”

Hrithik’s banger chartbuster ‘Alcoholia’ earned him praises for his effortless and smooth dance moves. Talking about that, Hrithik Roshan shared, “I had a lot of fun in Alcoholia. Vedha to dance was a challenge and it was a wonderful challenge. For me this was a learning experience, because I was skeptical or scared of that kind of expressions.” It does happen when people compliment you for a certain kind of expressions and looks, like in Dhoom 2, Bang Bang or War. When you get compliments for those type of looks, you get scared of doing something opposite of it. keeda within is stronger than the fear, so my desire to set myself free for Vedha was such a good opportunity for me. It was absolutely incredible. I did every expression that I would do in my own personal space, it’s the person I am, this is the entirety of me, I just let everything out. I had a lot of fun and I’m really surprised, I was actually shocked when the song came out and people complimented me after watching it. myself went with this song and did things which I thought I was wrong. However, people in turn gave me such compliments. This is what it means to be an actor, to continuously keep exploring, nothing is right, nothing is wrong, it is just expression. When it comes to expressions, if you’re being honest and your integrity to the character is strong then nothing is wrong, you can do whatever you want and it will be received with love.”

Currently, Hrithik Roshan is gearing up for ‘Fighter’ directed by Siddharth Anand and co-starring Deepika Padukone. Touted as India’s first aerial action film, ‘Fighter’ is slated to release on 25th January 2024.
