Rakesh Roshan has taken the failure of Kites very seriously and hence planning to hit back with a sequel of 2006 hit film Krrish starring his son Hrithik Roshan.

The father son duo has given three films together till now, which includes Hrithik’s debut movie Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai then Koi Mil Gaya and Krrish. All the three movies were highly appreciated and did a good box office business.

Rakesh had planned for a sequel of Krrish earlier too but it never materialized. However, the debacle of Kites has made him work on it very seriously to make Hrithik stand tall in the top list again. The earlier plan of Krrish 2 was mainly cancelled due to the extra special effects in Avatar, which was released at the end of 2009.

According to the sources, “Roshans have already started meetings for the sequel of Krrish. They have taken the debacle of Kites very seriously. All the three films Rakesh made with his son Hrithik were big hits so they want to ensure the combination creates history again”.

The source added, “After giving those hits, Rakesh wanted to take a break from direction and start producing films. Among all these, Rakesh Om Prakash Mehra was supposed to direct Krrish 2. They conducted several meetings for this but it got dissolved”.

However, whatever be the reason, the audience will get to see their favorite Indian superhero back on the big screen. This time, it is expected to be much entertaining than the first one.

Heartthrob Hrithik Roshan is the next Bollywood celebrity to have his wax statue installed in the famous Madame Tussauds wax museum in London.

After Amitabh Bachchan, Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan and Aishwarya Rai, Hrithik has reserved a spot for himself at the famous museum.

Hrithik’s statue will be installed in early 2011.

‘We began our association with the world-famous Madame Tussauds museum in 2000 when at the inaugural International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) awards in 2000 at the Millennium Dome, Amitabh Bachchan was announced as the first ever Indian film star to be honoured in wax,’ Andre Timmins, one of the directors of Wizcraft, told IANS.

‘Then followed a string of select Indian stars and we are very pleased that Hrithik Roshan now joins this esteemed waxed league, within a decade of entering the film industry.’

In fact, he even visited several people affected by the disease to get a first hand account of their experiences,’ said a source close to the actor.

Hrithik Roshan has a rocking last couple of years with the success of films like Dhoom 2 and Jodhaa Akbar still echoing at the box office. However, another reason the last few years have been rather interesting for him is because of his new opted role in fatherhood. Speaking to Subhash K Jha the actor talked about how he disciplined his kids, what they love to do as they grow up and most importantly how does he manage his time with them.
The actor began by a regret for not having spent as much time as he would have liked with his youngest son Hridaan who is now 14 months old. "I’ve been shooting most of the time. I’ve hardly had time to be with him. Hridaan smiles at everything and everyone. He’s quite a smiley baby," the actor said.
If you’re wondering what the oldest son Hrehaan is up to then it seems that he’s taking to his daddy’s ways and being the superhero of the household! The actor was proud to boast about his son crazy life when he said, "Sometimes for half a day Hrehaan is Krrish and for the other half of the day he is Spiderman or Superman. So he’s flying around the house all day." In addition he said that no overly needed rules are imposed on Hrehaan and he’s allowed to go as crazy as possible given some limits like putting all the toys back when he’s done.
However, we all know that with kids not all things are peachy, a bit of discipline is always requires, so how does Hrithik reason with his kids, To that the actor replied, "I’ve never stopped him from doing anything. Even when he was just a one-and-a-half year old and he banged the DVD player, I reasoned rather than shouted at him."
The proud father continued to boast about his kids like every father who loves them when he said that now Hrehaan is quite smart, holding the DVD in a proper manner to avoid scratches when he’s watching his favourite films and even turning the AC on all by himself! Ask him which films are constantly re-occurring the family’s television screams and two names jump to mind, Spiderman and Krissh! What a healthy balance of Western and Desi superheroes don’t you think?!
Moving onto his professional life the actor wrapped up by reiterating his motto when it comes to choosing films nowadays, "The big question I always ask myself before doing a film is, can I give my right arm for it? If the answer is yes, then I’m on. For Kites, I can give both my arms. On second thoughts, he says, "Considering what I went through with my knees, I take that back. Nothing matters more than your health. Now when I pray for my sons, I pray for their good health."

Hrithik got the tattoo done while Susanne wasn’t in India. We had several meetings at his residence to finalise how the tattoo will look. I chose a font called Elvish, which is unique. Hrithik liked it a lot too. It was great to see how co-operative he was, carefully following all the instructions before and after the tattoo. He was like a child, extremely thrilled after the tattoo was done and couldn’t wait to show it to Susanne.”
