KRRISH 3 Updates - Page 26

Actor Hrithik Roshan feels that Hollywood films like 'The Avengers' and 'Iron Man 3' have raised the bar for superhero movies but he is ready to face comparisons and compete with these biggies when 'Krrish 3' hits the screens.

"When we saw the look of 'The Avengers', 'Iron Man 3', 'Superman'... It was awesome...they had raised the bar... They have taken it to another level. We had to stand up and face competition," Hrithik told reporters at the trailer launch of'Krrish 3'.

"Why not compete with them and find out what we can do," he said.

'Krrish 3' has Hrithik, Priyanka Chopra, Kangna Ranaut and Vivek Oberoi in lead roles.

The film boasts of special effects, which director Rakesh Roshandecided to get it done here to encourage and promote local talent.

Even as everyone is looking forward to the release, Hrithik wants to keep everything relating to the movie under wraps.

"I would not like to talk about my powers... want to keep it a suspense," he said.

In the third installment of this superhero series, Vivek and Kangana are the new additions. They both play antagonists.

"I loved working with the Roshans.. they are genuine, large hearted. I believe if you have a legendary director like Rakesh Roshan then you can play any character convincingly, it is his brilliance... he has created the character," Vivek said. "The credit goes to writers and Rakesh sir," he said.

Bollywood actor Anil Kapoor said he shared a special director-actor pairing with Rakesh Roshan as together they had delivered many hit films.

"Like there was this hit jodi (pair) of Amitabh Bachchan and Manmohan Desai, Karan Johar-Shah Rukh Khan...the same way, I felt Guddu and me were also a jodi," Kapoor said.

"...But Hrithik came in the way and broke our jodi," he said in a lighter vein.

Kapoor and Roshan worked together in films like 'Kala Bazaar', 'Kishen-Kanhaiya', 'Khel' and others. Hence, when Roshan asked Kapoor to launch the 'Krrish 3' event and introduce the star cast, he immediately agreed.

"I feel privileged and honored to launch or anchor or whatever you call it the trailer of 'Krrish 3'. Guddu (as Rakesh Roshan is fondly called) has a 100 per cent track record as a filmmaker. He is a great father and a husband, a fantastic friend...his friendship goes on for years and years no matter if anyone achieves box office success or not and that is what I admire about him," Kapoor told reporters.

"I hope to be part of 'Krrish 4'," the actor added.

Roshan thanked Anil for coming to the event at such a short notice.

"This gesture of him will always remain in my heart. Hrithik says when he started his career, everybody who observed him said he performed like Anil Kapoor...that is because he worked closely with him while he assisted me on Kapoor's films," he said.

"My model of acting was based on Anil Kapoor...he is a fantastic person and actor. He is so young today that I can't even call him uncle," Hrithik said.

Kapoor introduced the film's trailer and actors-Hrithik Roshan, Vivek Oberoi and Kangana Ranaut.

"The poster of the film has already got 10 lakh hits and created a history. The trailer looksamazing, it is unbelievable, I am speechless...I don't know what to say," Kapoor said.

'Krrish 3', the third instalment will take forward the story of the superhero, played by Hrithik in'Koi Mil Gaya' and "Krrish". Starring Hrithik, Priyanka Chopra, Kangana Ranuat and Vivek Oberoi it is set for a November 4 release.
