When Koi Mil Gaya released 17 years ago, it was something that Indian cinema had not seen before. The film and especially Hrithik Roshan’s performance was appreciated by audience and critics alike. It was one of the few films that kids, adults and elders, all enjoyed together.

Hrithik played the role of an overgrown child with special needs and surprised everyone. It was a role that one would not imagine someone as good looking as him to play, at the peak of his career. But he pulled it off like no one else could.
