Healthy arguments galore for Hrithik and Rakesh Roshan over Krrish 4

Arguments can be healthy and constructive, especially when they lead to improved results and raise the bar! Just what’s happening with Rakesh Roshan and his son, Hrithik Roshan. This father-son duo is apparently witnessing debates galore over the casting and other aspects of filmmaking. There is bound to be a generational gap, what with Rakesh being 68 and Hrithik, 44. This is perhaps most apparent in their respective attitudes towards filmmaking.

Buzz goes that dad Rakesh, with his wealth of experience accumulated over the years, pretty much set the terms early on. However, in the ensuing years, Hrithik has also grown and matured into an artist in his own right, and he isn’t exactly swallowing every bit of advice that comes his way from Papa. This leads to some fiery discussions between the two.

Both the Roshans are collaborating on Krrish 4, which is a long way away, pegged to release in 2020. For both these adult men, working together is not proving to be a walk in the park, as they have many differences of opinion and are very voluble about the same.
The duo has worked together in four films so far — from Hrithik’s film debut Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai to Koi Mil Gaya, Krrish 2 and Krrish 3. Hrithik has matured considerably since he made his debut and he has his own take on the flow of the script and the cast that is needed for the fourth instalment of the Krrish superhero series.

Rakesh Roshan, on the other hand, has never had reason to doubt his own capabilities as a filmmaker. However, his own views especially on audience taste, could be seen as old-fashioned and out of sync with the vastly changing times. While Hrithik is keen that his father makes Krrish 4 a more subtle and intelligent film, in which audiences have to stay alert and piece the story together, dad Rakesh veers towards spelling things out clearly.

Besides this ideological difference, the two are supposedly also having their share of disagreements over the casting for the film. At the end of it, we are sure all the discussions and disagreements will result in a film that finds the golden mean. Good going, guys!
