Hrithik Roshan plays a magician, Ethan Mascherenas, who becomes a paraplegic after a trick goes wrong. Bound to wheel chair for 14 long years, he demonstrates his inner strength and courage in facing the adversity of life. He's taken care by his lovely nurse, Sofia played by Ash. Playing magical tricks is not a new thing for Hrithik; he has done it earlier in KAHO NA PYAR HAI and KITES.
"I can easily make a playing card disappear…like this," he said wiggling his fingers in the air. When Ash claimed that she was too sharp and she always caught the sleight of hand, Hrithik shot back, "If she's sharp, I am sharper," smiling triumphantly.
Never mind the pitching of sharp wits, what the audience really cares about is that the beautiful twosome is back on screen again. DHOOM, JODHA AKBAR and now GUZAARISH – certainly a cinematic treat for film buffs.
