Hrithik Roshan:
On occasion on Koi Mil Gaya, Hrithik Roshan and his father and director Rakesh Roshan recently sat for an interview to chat about the film and the experience of making it. Apart from many fun details regarding the film, Roshan revealed that he was bullied in school and that helped him play the character of Rohit.
He said, “I was in school, so bullying is something that I had experienced, and I had a stutter. So, the vulnerability that the character needed life gave me already. so I said ‘Ah! Now it makes sense, okay.’ So there was a DNA match and this is something that I think is a great perspective…lesson in our lives that whatever we possess, good or bad, everything is useful.
They can all be used if you just keep your eyes open and wait, everything you have can be used. And the time will come for it.So wait.”
Further talking about the character, he said “The genius of Koi… Mil Gaya is the way Papa (Rakesh Roshan) scripted the character of Rohit, creating an atmosphere of such desperate wanting and seeding that want in the audiences’ hearts and minds. The audience wanted Rohit to have a victory. I wanted him to be vindicated, wanted to see him joyful and happy.
We wanted that relief and that was created so beautifully that if you ask me agar Jaadoo ek cardboard box bhi hota na toh ( even if Jaadoo was a cardboard box) the film would have worked. If Jaadoo had come like a cardboard box with no expression but given that relief to Rohit, the film would have still worked.”
The film is now in theaters as a re-release since August 4th till August 10th. The film is receiving an abundance of praise and love during its re-run and fans are loving this alien fantasy film.
