Bollywood superstar Hrithik Roshan recently shared insights into his upcoming film *War 2*, his unexpected struggles with dance steps alongside co-star Kiara Advani, and even confessed to regretting turning down two iconic roles.
Dance Dilemmas on War 2
Despite his reputation as one of Bollywood’s finest dancers, Hrithik revealed a surprising challenge during the shooting of the *War 2* song “Aavan Jaavan.” He admitted that matching steps with Kiara Advani proved unexpectedly difficult.
He explained that even a seemingly simple step became complicated as they tried to synchronize their movements, each trying to adapt to the other’s style. This was a stark contrast to some of his more intricate dance routines, which he found easier to master.
Regretting Iconic Roles
During the event, Hrithik also opened up about his past career choices, specifically mentioning two blockbuster films he declined. He revealed he said no to both *Dil Chahta Hai* and *3 Idiots*.
However, he expressed no lasting regret, believing that Aamir Khan, who ultimately took on both roles, was the perfect fit. He felt it was “destiny” for Aamir to star in those films.
Off-Camera Memory Blips
The actor candidly spoke about his personal shortcomings, admitting he struggles to remember dialogues or dance steps when he’s not in front of the camera. This memory lapse is something he finds “unbelievable” about himself.
For a performer known for his impeccable delivery and precise choreography, this off-screen memory challenge highlights the dedication and focus required once the cameras start rolling.
Mastering the Moves: The Lakshya Example
Recalling his famous “Main Aisa Kyu Hoon” song from the film *Lakshya*, Hrithik shared how he perfected the visually complex choreography. He credited legendary choreographer Prabhudheva for making the difficult look easy.
Hrithik practiced for a month, gradually internalizing each move with assistance. This slow and steady approach transformed what seemed like an impossible routine into a “masterpiece.”
Stepping into Direction with Krrish 4
Looking ahead, Hrithik also touched upon his highly anticipated directorial debut with *Krrish 4*. He confessed to feeling both immense excitement and considerable nervousness about taking on this new role.
He expressed hope for support and blessings from his fans as he embarks on this significant new chapter in his professional life.
