Hrithik reveals his reasons to choose TV

Known for his complicated moves and mesmerizing dance form, Hrithik Roshan, who makes his foray into television with a brand new reality show Just Dance, doesn’t agree that he is 'God of Dance' as he is called on the show. In a candid chat, Hrithik reveals his reasons to choose TV, especially this show and what he expects from this endeavour.

What prompted you to chose Just Dance as your first television appearance?I was never inclined towards doing television shows but when I was approached with this concept, it connected with me and I came on board. That is the same method I apply when I choose my films projects. One has to identify with something, only then can you be excited about your work. I assure you that Just Dance is a show never been seen before and I am very proud to be associated with No 1 GEC of the country Star Plus, to bring the best talent forward. Along with talented choreographers, Farah Khan and Vaibhavi Merchant, we will hunt the best in dance, the ultimate dancing champion, from across the globe –India, UK, US.

What will be the judging parameters?In the show, we will be looking for someone who goes beyond steps, beyond counting- one, two, three, four. They should feel the dance in their soul, in their bones. According to me, competition is the only way to push you to excel in life. Competition nurtures innovation, drives passion and Just Dance is a show that takes this energy to a whole new level. I can’t wait and am looking forward with bated breath to Just Dance.

Is the concept indigenous or derived from a foreign show?This is something never done before. I have seen numerous dance shows and was blown away when this concept came to me. The international auditions will begin on 27 February and the Just Dance team will scout talent in Britain, US, and major cities across India. Just Dance will provide a global platform for dancers not only passionate about their art but enjoy different dancing styles as well.
How does it feel to be called the 'God of Dance', especially in the promos of Just Dance?I don’t think anyone is God of Dance- especially not me. According to me, dance is an expression. When first time someone would have danced, he must have been happy, jubilant, overwhelmed or perhaps emotionally charged. For me the root of dance is that first expression, that first person who have some emotion inside him that he wanted to express via his body.

Who is your God of dance?Shammi Kapoor is the God of dance for me, because he went beyond steps, his body just moved to music and he created magic moments. Also, I believe there are gurus of dance who teach you the intricacies, the nuances and I have two wonderfully talented gurus with me on the show. I have been guided and abused by them many times but that helped me hone my dancing skills to this level

Numerous filmstars are on telly today. Are you nervous, anxious or apprehensive about the TRP war?Not at all. It is the same way as numerous actors do numerous films. You can’t keep worrying or keep tabs on who is doing what. You have to work on yourself, your projects and leave the rest to God.
Reports in the media suggest you are paid Rs 112 crore for Just Dance. Is it true?I thought I was paid very well but then I heard these speculative reports. Now I feel like renegotiating.

Who is your favourite filmstar on TV? Who do you watch on TV?I hardly watch TV. But I have seen bits of most celeb reality shows. I look upto all of them. I enjoyed watching Mr Bachchan the most.

Hrithik Roshan in Telugu block-buster “Magadheera” remake?

Hrithik Roshan is in mood to repeat what Salman Khan has been doing. The latter who tasted success with Telugu remake “Pokiri” as “Wanted” in Bollywoood is right now doing two southern films as remakes with one being from Telugu. Now, it seems it is the turn of hunk, Hrithik Roshan.

Yes, if reports are to be believed then Hrithik Roshan would be playing the lead role in the remake of Telugu Mega hit Magadheera which catapulted Chiranjeevi’s son Ram Charan Teja into the big league of Andhra box-office. Magadheera is the highest grosser of Telugu film industry as of now crossing forty crores of mark with in few weeks of its release.

Producer of Magadheera, Allu Aravind is in talks with the Guzaarish star to reprieve the role of Ram Charan Teja. Aravind’s last venture in Bollywood was Ghajini. The producer is keen on repeating the success of Ghajini with Roshan Jr this time.

An official conformation is yet to be announced about the actor’s participation or not in the film. But one thing’s for sure, if Hrithik accepts Magadheera it would eventually give the star the much needed blockbuster that he needs after Kites and Guzaarish.

Hrithik Roshan and Valentine's Day

This Valentine's Day, like every year, is going to be very special for Hrithik Roshan. The superstar is going out for family and children and most importantly he is looking to surprise Sussanne. "I really put in an effort when I buy gifts. I believe in giving my wife meaningful things that can bring a smile on her face. Which woman doesn't like receiving gifts from her man? Not just Sussanne, even if I'm gifting something to anyone be it my parents, children or close friends, I make sure the gift is special," Hrithik said.

Ask him to reveal his best moment of romance and he shoots, "It is definitely the day I said the three big words to Sussanne. It took her by surprise. I don't really have great memories of Valentine's Day as I was a shy kid and never really got the courage to walk up to the girl I liked and talk to her, forget asking her out." Now, this really surprises us as Hrithik has been making girls go weak in their knees for the longest time. "I became confident as I grew up. But it surely feels great getting all the attention. It is a huge compliment. I don't think today being married changes anything. Marriage makes people sexier," he says.

For Hrithik, love is like oxygen that he can never do without. "I'm an incurable romantic. I love the concept of being in love with one person throughout my life and I'm blessed to have Sussanne and on Valentine's Day, I renew my vows of being with her, loving her and her bouncing board all my life. I believe that little things make the biggest difference to a relationship. I'm a very passionate person. For me, Valentine's Day is more than just the conventional man-woman relationship. It's about love for family, for children and for people around me. I thank my fans for the love they have been showering on me and I promise to give back as much as I can."

Professionalism of Hrithik Roshan

Hrithk Roshan went on a stretch of 17 hours to shoot a promo for his upcoming foray into small screen, a dance based reality show titled “So you think you can dance”. The actor went on to shoot for it even though he had a muscle tear.

Now adding another feather to his Professionalism, the Guzaarish star was seen on the first day of shoot of yesteryear’s remake of Amitabh Bachchan starrer “Agneepath” provided he was not necessary for the shoot on the concerned day. Entire unit on the location was dazzled to see the star’s presence wondering whether he had any scenes to shoot but eventually came to know that he came to see how thing’s are panning out.

Sources revealed that Roshan Jr was seen showing keen interest on what’s happening in the location. Agneepath star’s Hrithik Roshan, Priyanka Chopra and Rishi Kapoor in the lead and is produced by Dharma Productions. Certainly Roshan Jr surprises everybody, one or the other day with his professionalism. Any body listening?

"So You Think You Can Dance" will be aired in June ??

Ganesh Hegde has been signed on to judge Star Plus’s dance reality show Just Dance along with Hrithik Roshan, sources said. Prabhudeva and Jaaved Jafferi have been approached to be the third judge. 

The show is said to be on the lines of So You Think You Can Dance though it has been tweaked a bit. Participants will be culled from across the world with auditions in New York and London. 

However, unlike So You...which has a pair competing for the prize money, Just Dance will have solo contestants competing with the ‘’God of dance”. 

Hrithik will dance with each of the finalists. The superstar recently shot for the show’s promo and music video. Auditions will start from February 16 and the show will, in all probability, be aired in June.

Hrithik Roshan: The Sexiest Indian?

Hrithik Roshan appears on the cover of the February issue of Marie Claire for being India's sexiest man. The mag has females grace its cover and only once a year it is a male. This time, the Guzaarish actor has the honour. In the accompanying article, he talks about love as it is a Valentine's Day issue.

He says, "Love should be the first emotion you discover and learn and grow with." While about his other love -- dance, the star states, "All I can say is when you're dancing, just let go. Don't be afraid to look stupid. I don't have a style; I'm not a professional dancer."

Hrithik’s Agneepath: Shooting begins!

The shooting of Hrithik Roshan’s Agneepath remake, produced by Karan Johar, began in Mumbai on Tuesday.
While Tuesday’s shoot only included the supporting actors, lead actors Hrithik and Priyanka Chopra are expected to join the crew later this month. Hrithik plays the legendary role of Vijay Dinanath Chauhan, which won Amitabh Bachchan a National Award, a couple of decades back in 1991.
The original released in 1990 and although it didn’t do too well at the box office back then, the film is still remembered as one of Bachchan’s greatest performances ever. With humongous expectations and inevitable comparisons, it would be very interesting to see how Hrithik performs in arguably his most challenging role to date.
The Agneepath remake is directed by Karan Malhotra (the original was directed by Mukul Anand) and is expected to release by the end of 2011.

2 Crores per episode for Hrithik

If industry sources are to be believed, Hrithik Roshan will soon be the highest paid television host of India, as the actor will be paid close to Rs 2 Crores for each episode of an upcoming dance reality show titled ‘Just Dance’.
The show which will feature dancers from all over the country, is expected to run for more than 50 episodes and will make the actor richer by 100 to 110 crores!
Just Dance is likely to be aired on Start Plus sometime in May – June and the promos are expected to hit screens in the next few weeks.

Hrithik shoots for 17 hours with injury

Hrithik Roshan, whose Agneepath remake produced by Karan Johar went on floors last night, has been literally burning the midnight oil for his upcoming dance reality show, Just Dance, on Star Plus. The actor, despite having a muscle tear in his chest area, shot for 17 hours continuously to complete the promos for his debut as judge on the TV show which was earlier called Dance Olympic.

Roshan reported for shooting on Monday at 9 am, and wrapped at 2 am on Tuesday morning at a studio located in Malad. His schedule included rehearsals and the actual promo shoot. The actor, despite experiencing pain, continued to shoot. After a point, he consumed painkillers, and was also given a shot in his arm so that his pain was temporarily taken care of.
A close associate of the actor confirms the events, saying, “He was extremely co-operative. He didn’t want the teams from SOL Productions, the company producing the show, and Star Plus to reschedule the shoot because it would have meant a lot of monetary and other damages. He took his medicines, and completed everything he was supposed to.” 
A source from the production house adds, “Hrithik was extremely professional. He didn’t let us cancel the shoot though we offered to do that because we were really concerned about his health. Since he understands the nuances of production, he decided to continue.”
The promo of Just Dance is expected to break in a few days. The show is likely to start around mid-2011 and will feature dancers from various countries. Reportedly, the channel and the production house approached Roshan Jr in the last quarter of 2010, just ahead of his year-end release, Guzaarish.  The actor, acknowledged in the movies for his dance skills has apparently offered a fee of Rs 2 crore an episode.
If industry speculation is anything to go by, the show, which is expected to run into 56 episodes, will fetch Roshan anything between
Rs 90 and 112 crore, turning him into one of the highest paid Bollywood exports on TV. Amitabh Bachchan and Akshay Kumar, who were paid approximately between Rs 1.5 and Rs 1.75 crore for their shows, would rank second and third then.

Hrithik Roshan @ 56th Filmfare Awards

Hrithik Roshan disappointed by Filmfare Awards snub

Bollywood actor Hrithik Roshan is so confident about his performance in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s GUZAARISH, that he just wouldn’t take any kind of defeat related to it. He thinks that GUZAARISH is his finest act till date, and he is even ready to give up on his gentleman stand for it.

Recently, at the Filmfare Awards function, when Hrithik came to know that he won’t win the award for the ‘Best Actor’, he just stormed off the venue. The whole Roshan parivaar walked off from the function as they realized that the awards will be presented to Rishi Kapoor for DO DOONI CHAAR and Shahrukh Khan for MY NAME IS KHAN. Hrithik was disappointed that he didn’t win the award in either category, critics or popular.

Though Hrithik stayed mum about the issue, Suzanne tweeted, “Just came back from Filmfare. Sometimes in life we get what we don’t deserve.. makes it diff (difficult) to understand what’s the logic in all this.”

Well, we too think that Hrithik deserved the award, but Hrithik could've taken the whole saga sportingly!

Sussanne steals hubby’s thunder

She peps up the show with her feisty spirit and frank responses. It’s wonderful to see the otherwise demure Sussanne Roshan not just hold her own but overshadow her star husband Hrithik Roshan on Karan Johar’s show. The first 10 minutes almost put you to sleep as Karan grilled Hrithik on the reason behind Guzarish’s failure. Had he asked him directly, maybe it wouldn’t have been as agonizing but Karan being Karan had to go about in a round about manner and talk about good cinema versus commercial cinema and Hrithik had to talk about how much love he received for his performance, so the failure didn’t matter. But this kind of sychophancy only happens with the big stars. A small time actor, would not make it to KJo’s show nor would the filmi fraternity be as kind to him. Hrithik himself looked like he was about to fall asleep till his charming wife entered the picture and pepped up the show. Full brownie points to her cos’ her humour ensured that Hrithik woke up from his slumber and made some effort to sound interesting. Of course, his wife very sweetly put him in his place by admitting that he had women hitting on him all the time and if she had turned into Hrithik Roshan for a day, she would have had a blast having a scene with all the gorgeous women. Wow, that was a really honest confession which stumped Hrithik and made him sound foolish with his politically correct responses.

But you can’t expect too much honesty in this chat show as everything is glossed over and it’s a happy world. So, while Kareena and Barbara are brought up in the rapid fire round, there is no reference to Hrithik’s alleged affairs with the ladies that almost broke up his marriage. On Koffee with Karan, everything is hunky dory, though Sussanne did admit that while she loves Kareena, she would go back to sleep if she was transformed into her one morning. And yes, she gave her hubby ‘the’ look when he mentioned that Barbara was his hottest co-star. And Hrithik looked taken aback when Sussanne admitted that she would plant a kiss on SRK’s lips if she had turned into Gauri Khan. But on seeing her hubby’s flustered look she quickly added that she would only be able to do that as Gauri Khan. Smart girl we say.

Yes, the couple admitted to fighting over ‘silly’ things and that Sussanne broke into ‘laughter’ during a fight, which even the diplomatic Karan found ‘very strange’. But we are not surprised, after all this couple has always been good at projecting the right image outside their home and are certainly not going to wash their dirty linen in public.

Hrithik & Priyanka's INTIMATE Kissing Scenes in AGNEEPATH

Hrithik Roshan and Priyanka Chopra: Setting the bed on fire

After Shahrukh Khan, Salman Khan, Aishwarya Rai and Amitabh Bachchan, actor Hrithik Roshan recently became the next star from Bollywood to get his own wax statue in the famous Madame Tussaud’s museum in London.

And while wife Suzzane Khan showered kisses on her hubby’s waxy model, the actor is heating up the bed with the hottie Priyanka Chopra. Hrithik is currently filming for Karan Johar’s remake of ‘Agneepath’ in which he gets into the skin of the popular Vijay Deenanath Chauhan that was so adeptly played by Amitabh Bachchan in the original.

And actress Priyanka Chopra will be seen playing Hrithik’s love interest. In the original ‘Agneepath’ it was actress Madhavi who played a nurse and romanced Amitabh Bachchan. In the remake Priyanka won’t be the nurse since Karan Johar felt that would be a total waste of her sexuality. There is a buzz that she may play a sex worker but Karan denies that report. 

But he does confirm that the chemistry between Hrithik and Priyanka is red hot and they have some intimate scenes that Karan has labelled as ‘adult’ ones. Though, we have seen Hrithik and Piggy Chops romancing on-screen in ‘Krrish’, there was no physical intimacy in that superhero film since it was catering to the younger audience (children). 

But in ‘Agneepath’, Karan is trying hard to put forth a fiery and intensely passionate love moments between the actors. We would have to wait a bit to see if Hrithik-Priyanka chemistry is as good as Hrithik-Aishwarya……..

Hrithik-Katrina's Bollywood longest Lip-lock

Bollywood’s sexy actress Katrina Kaif is set to make debut on-screen kiss with Hrithik Roshan in Zoya Akthar’s film.

Director Zoya Akthar has shot a lip-locking scene on the duo, which lasts for two-minutes in her upcoming flick Zindagi Milegi Na Dobara. It is believed to be the longest lip-lock on-screen so far in the B-town. Zoya Akthar said that the scene of kissing has been filmed awesomely and it demands for the sequence. It is her second directorial after Luck By Chance, also stars her brother Faran Akthar in the movie. But the director is not ready to reveal the details of the movie.

Sources close to sets says that Kat showed no interest and was hesitant for the shot, but somehow Zoya managed her and after the shot Kat felt comfortable.

The story of the kissing goes like this “When Hrithik bids an adieu to the Kat looking in her eyes without any words, then Kat realizes how much she loves and runs off and shows her affection in form of kiss. The scene continues for two- long minutes.

It is the first longest Lip-lock after Raja Hindustani, which was shot on Aamir khan and Karishma Kapoor.

So, let’s watch it on the Silver Screen and hope the upcoming trends in B-Town shatters the records of this.

Hrithik Roshan donates for treatment of CHD children

Bollywood actor Hrithik Roshan today made a donation for the treatment of 10 children suffering from congenital heart defect (CHD) . The actor, who launched Seven Hills Hospital's 'Save a Heart' programme for children with CHD in the western suburb of Andheri, said he was overwhelmed, proud and happy to be part of the initiative.

''I pledge my support in whatever form that may be required. We must remember we are saving a child and securing our future,'' Roshan said.
The actor also danced and interacted with child patients to the delight of the audience.
A congenital heart disorder is a defect in the structure of the heart and great vessels which is present at birth. In India, there are an estimated 180,000 children born with CHD every year, with 60,000 - 90,000 suffering from critical CHD requiring early treatment. 10 percent of the country's infant mortality can be accounted by CHD alone.

Hrithik requests for distance

Hrithik Roshan may have joined the Madame Tussaud’s league of Bollywood A-listers, but the superstar still doesn’t see himself as part of the big league. Or so it seems. 

Hrithik has apparently made a rather unusual request to the museum authorities. “I am elated with the honour of being the latest addition to the museum. But I have asked the authorities to place my statue away from those of the other Bollywood stars. They are unmatchable and great stars in their own right. I’ve requested that my statue be placed in some other section of the museum.” Now, given the strange nature of his request, it’s hard to tell whether it’s humility or rivalry that prompted his gesture.

Sussanne opens up on Hrithik's link-ups

The usually reticent and shy Sussanne Roshan opened up on her hubby Hrithik Roshan his link-ups and their relationship on Karan Johar's chat show, Koffee With Karan.

She spoke about Hrithik's co-stars Kareena Kapoor and Barbara Mori (both of who were reported to have shared a 'special' relationship with the actor) and even told Karan that she finds Siddharth Mallya, the son of United Breweries' owner Vijay Mallya, the hottest male today.

Says a source close to Karan, "No one expected Sussanne to be so candid about Hrithik's reported link-ups. When Karan asked her about the female star Hrithik shared the best chemistry with, prompt came her reply Barbara Mori and Kareena Kapoor. Even Karan was shocked to see her being so frank about the women Hrithik was allegedly linked up with.”

While there were rumours of Kareena and him sharing a special friendship before his marriage (during the time of Yaadein filming), Hrithik and Barbara had been linked when they were shooting for his film, Kites.

Sharing his thoughts on love, Hrithik said, "Love is about bringing out the other person's individuality. What has gone wrong with the love today is that people have started to possess. If I love her (Sussanne), I should let her do what makes her smile and not impose my opinions."

With Karan, Hrithik and Sussanne spoke about their marriage, the camaraderie they share, how they make up and a lot more. Sussanne even talked about how both of them make up after fights. "Hrithik and I always make up in the funniest way. First we fight, and then a moment later we crack up on either something silly that one of us would have said. If not that, I start laughing at how Hrithik's expression is, when he is angry."

Karan gets all secrets out--Hrithik Roshan

Karan Johar's celebrity chat show, 'Koffee With Karan' on Star World has been making headlines either due to the bold confessions by the celebs or their controversial remarks about co-actors.


Recently, it was Hrithik Roshan and his gorgeous wife, Sussanne Roshan, who shared a sip of “Koffee” on the show with KJo.
Acknowledging the fun on the show, the 'Guzaarish' star told The Times Of India, “All other television show hosts do the usual best in entertaining, but Karan (or Pappu as I call him) gets all the secrets out! Now that's a talent.”
In turn, Karan said, “I should be offended that Koffee gets me more mention than my films.
"But honestly I'm not miffed. I just love the show; I'm happy that people do leak their most well-kept secrets out on my couch.”

KJo on a 'Koffee' date with Hrithik and Sussanne
Reportedly, the recent conversation with Hrithik and Sussanne turned out to be entertaining and stunning as Sussanne, quite frankly told about their personal life, her husband's link-ups and career.
Interestingly, during the conversation, Sussanne, who looked glamorous in a short outfit designed by Nandita Mahtani, called Siddharth Mallya as the hottest man alive.
And if this wasn't enough, when KJo asked her, what would she do if she wakes up as Gauri Khan, Sussanne, a big fan of SRK, said, “She would like to kiss SRK on his lips.”
Listening to Sussanne's bold and naughty comments, Karan was left speechless.
Sussanne talks about Hrithik's on-screen chemistry
When talked about Hrithik's best on-screen chemistry, Sussanne immediately replied, Barbara Mori and Kareena Kapoor.
Apparently, Hrithik, before his marriage with Sussanne, was linked up with Kareena Kapoor, and post-marriage, with Barbara Mori, during the shooting of 'Kites'.
But listening to Sussanne's immediate reply, Karan was shocked.


Sussanne talks about fights
Revealing about their fights, Sussanne said, “Hrithik and I always make up in the funniest way.
“First we fight, and then a moment later we crack up on either something silly that one of us would have said. If not that, I start laughing at how Hrithik's expression is, when he is angry.”
Adding more fun in the conversation, surprisingly, Sussanne candidly spoke about Hrithik's hotness on the show, and said that he looks hot, sans his clothes.

Now I have two of you! Suzanne tells Hrithik

His wife, Sussanne, gave the waxen Hrithik Roshan a kiss and said, “Now I have two of you.” His son quietly walked up to it and slipped his fingers through his, holding his hand as he would his dad’s, and by doing so gave it his stamp of approval. His mother, Pinky, was jumping with joy, and dadRakesh was cracking jokes, telling her that if she liked the new Hrithik so much, she should go on stage, he’d say, “Statue” and she’d freeze alongside!
As for Hrithik, coming face-to-face with his incredible mirror image was a surreal experience that freaked him out. “Looking at it, I couldn’t laugh for more than two seconds. I’d flinch and take a step backwards, it’s so lifelike and seems to be telling me, ‘Hey dude, you look just like me!” The actor unveiled his look-alike at London’s wax museum, Madame Tussauds, on Thursday, to join an elite Bollywood group that includes Amitabh and Aishwarya Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan. “It’s humbling. When they asked me where I wanted my figure placed, I told them to put it in a corner,” he laughs.

The foreign media was in no mood to put him in a corner. “I’ve been talking for nine hours,” he admitted from London. “I’m astounded by the interest in Indian cinema globally. It warms my heart,” he asserts. The statue has been moulded on the Dhoom 2 look but for Hrithik, it’s not about the movie. “Whenever my children or any other child is dispirited or tired, I’d want him or her to look at this figure and know that failures can be conquered, you just have to rise above them,” he says. “I don’t want them to ever give up.”
Back home, Hrithik is preparing for another stint on Karan Johar’s couch. “I’ve never been comfortable on it and have always tried to find some excuse to stay away,” he admits. “But I love Karan too much to say ‘no’. Besides, he’s the best TV host we have who can get his guests to reveal secrets they’ve kept bottled up all these years. Sussanne has ‘exposed’ me on the show,” he chuckles.
The couple celebrated their 10th wedding anniversary last year but Hrithik says that 10 years ago, he only put his signature on a piece of paper and made the relationship official. “Sussanne has been a part of my life and soul for 16 years now, and I couldn’t have asked for a better companion. Like me she’s a Sufi at heart. For us, glam, glitz and awards don’t matter. It’s the moments… And of course our kids.”

He refuses to get started on Hrehaan and Hridaan saying that like any other parent, he can get mushy about his sons for hours together. “When I see them, I see unconditional love,” he says. “And an innocence that makes childhood precious.”

Bollywood is waxed!Shah Rukh Khan has his wax figure at two Madame Tussauds museums. His first statue was unveiled in London in 2007, where it was dressed in a black suit and white shirt. In August 2010, he unveiled the second statue in Los Angeles, where the figure had the Taj Mahal in the back drop. It had a black shirt instead of the white one. The actor unveiled his wax figure at a huge celebration comprising dance performances on Bollywood numbers.
Actor Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s statue was unveiled in September 2004 at the London museum. She was then shooting for Gurinder Chaddha’s Bride and Prejudice, and so the statue’s look was based on her look in the film — a pink patiala salwar and kurti. Post-marriage, another statue of the actor was unveiled at the Times Square museum in New York in 2007. This statue has a bridal get up — it is dressed in a red and gold sari and dons a mangalsutra.
Actor Salman Khan got waxed by Tussauds in 2008. Dressed in a black vest, the statue has six-pack abs and bulging biceps, just like the actor. Salman donated a set of clothes and a bracelet for his wax model. The actor beat nine others, including Madhuri Dixit and Lata Mangeshkar, to win a place of pride at the  museum after a public poll was conducted.
Superstar Amitabh Bachchan was the first Bollywood celebrity to get waxed at Madame Tussauds, London in 2000. Bachchan was chosen, following a poll to find the most famous Bollywood actor who has done close to 170 films. His look was based on Karan Johar’s hit Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham. His statue is clothed in a black bandgala achkan, accessorised with a shawl.

Hrithik takes potshots at Salman again

Bollywood stars and their constant digs at each other in some way or the other are certainly quite common these days. However when the digs are taken up to be something different than what they actually are supposed to mean then things do take a nasty turn.

Thus when sometime back hot hunk Salman Khan had called Hrithik Roshan a child it was taken quite with a pinch of salt by Hrithik and everyone thought that the episode was over and out. However, according to the buzz, Hrithik Roshan has gone on to state something like Salman Khan thinks that everyone is conspiring against him, which is not true since everyone in the industry loves him that too in the popular chat show Koffee with Karan everyone is speculating on that one.

Well, the episode with Hrithik and Suzanne Roshan is to be aired coming Sunday and the excitement is already at its best with this smart comment from Hrithik.

Now even if it was something which was said in absolute good humor there might be something in between the lines feel some speculators.

Now whether this brings in some good rapport between the two top notch stars or it brings some mudslinging is not yet known, but knowing the two stars this will simply be something like a joke that the two might share between themselves- now that’s what is called looking at the brighter side of things if there ever was any!

Shammi Kapoor Is All Praises For Hrithik

Hrithik Roshan went to London for the unveiling of his wax statue at Madame Tussauds. When he was about to board the flight, his family called him to say that the famous Shammi Kapoor wanted to have a few words with him.

A huge fan of Shammi Kapoor, Hrithik did not want to miss the opportunity to speak to him. So he humbly requested the cabin crew to allow him to receive one phone call. His request was granted and he spoke on the phone with Shammiji.

It so happened that Shammi Kapoor had just seen GUZAARISH and was full of praises for Hrithik. He wanted to call Hrithik to bless him and wish him all the best for his future endeavors. Hrithik was in a blissful mood after attending his phone call. He is a huge fan of the legendary Shammi Kapoor. As a child, Hrithik used to imitate his dance steps before a mirror.

When Shammiji was contacted, he confirmed speaking to Hrithik on the phone. According to him, Hrithik was a big talent in the industry and deserved to be encouraged.
For the airline, granting Hrithik his request was a rare exception.

When Hrithik Roshan was contacted, he said that he attended Shammiji’s phone call when he was on board. He further added that the legendary Shammi Kapoor had made his day as this was the first compliment from him.

SRK-Hrithik : The New Jai-Veeru Jodi!

SRK Made Hrithik Miss His Flight

It’s no big deal that SRK and Hrithik are good buddies in Bollywood but they are bonding big time which is the important part. Both of them are spending quality time with each other by partying hard.

At a recently concluded Awards event in Singapore, SRK called his buddy Hrithik and asked him to party with him. Incidentally Hrithik was on his way to airport to leave for India but that didn’t happen.

“Hrithik wanted to leave for India and his flight was booked. However SRK called him and told him that it was on January 14 that he made his debut in Bollywood. Since he had completed 11 years in Bollywood, it was time to party. SRK told him that he too was leaving the next day and asked him to come along with him in a chartered flight. So, SRK, Hrithik, along with Karan Johar, Arjun Rampal and Mehr, and Priyanka Chopra partied hard with Hrithik in his room, “explains our source.

While Hrithik’s debut KAHO NAA PYAR HAI went on to become biggest hit of the year, Shahrukh’s first home production PHIR BHI DIL HAI HINDUSTANI, which was released one week after KNPH, bombed at the box office.

Next day Hrithik left with SRK along with Suzanne and Karan for India.

'Blast' to get fit

The quest to get those perfectly sculpted muscles always sees some new addition or the other. The latest one that’s finding a lot of takers — right from A-listers like Hrithik Roshan, Shahid Kapur and even Colleen Rooney — is Gravity Blast. This is a 30-minute, highly intense workout which is based on resistance to increase strength and firm up muscles. 

The Gravity Blast workout is often done on a specialised training kit called the Gravity Training System or GTS. Elaborating on these workouts, Daniel D’Souza, a fitness trainer, says, “This exercise regime is only for those who have been working out for a while, not for beginners. It is a weight-based resistance training system where one banks on their resistance power to build muscles. So instead of pulling weights you are resisting their force.” He adds, “Of course, this also has a lot to do with one’s will power too.” The equipment can also be adjusted to suit one’s needs. “One must begin on a low incline and less resistance and build this up gradually. Those who are seriously looking to work on their muscles even work on an incline of 60 per cent sometimes,” says Namrata Rao, a fitness coach.

One of the biggest advantages of this workout is that it helps to strengthen all the muscles in the body. “When you compare it to the regular weights that one does, these are more effective because they work out some ignored muscle groups too. Since it is for a span of 30 minutes, the attention to various muscles is also distributed equally to ensure that there is an all-round effect. One can do up to 175 different exercises using the GTS,” explains Namrata. The downside is something that’s common with various other exercises — boredom. “There is not much room for innovation here and that’s why I often get my clients to combine a Gravity Blast workout with some other form of physical activity like swimming or tennis,” adds Daniel.

Hrithik To Unveil Madame Tussauds Statue Next Week in London

Next week, Hrithik Roshan will be the fifth Bollywood celebrity to be honored in wax at the famous Madame Tussauds in London. The wait for his fans to see him face-to face with his wax statue will end on the 20th of January when he will unveil the wax staute at Madame Tussauds. "I don't really have the words to articulate what it feels like. Being bestowed this honor is overwhelming," said award winning actor Hrithik Roshan when it was announced that the world famous attraction will hold his new wax figure in London.

 

Hrithik Roshan was measured for his new wax figure in both Mumbai and London. He flew down to London with wife Sussane Roshan and stylist Anaita Shroff Adajania for additional measurements and to decide the look of his wax statue. He tweeted in September 2010 while visiting the Madame Tussauds London office that he is undecided on the look. The options he gave to his fans were "Suit" or "Dhoom". It is a four-month process to create a life like figure of the stars that are represented at the museum. The first step is to craft a perfect clay sculpture from which the moulds are made to make an amazingly life like wax figure. They take over 500 precise body measurements to create the sculpture. Then it is over to a team of skilled hair and colour artists to insert the hair by hand and build up life like skin tones using layer upon layer of oil paint; every freckle, mole, dimple and wrinkle are accurately reproduced. Hrithik's pose will be kept top secret until launch day but the top London attraction is promising one of its most daring ever figures.

Hrithik will follow in the footsteps of other Bollywood giants Amitabh Bachchan, Aishwarya Rai, Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan, all of whom feature in the attraction in London. He is the youngest male actor from India to get this honour who only started working in the Indian Film Industry just over a decade ago. His first film Kaho Na Pyaar Hai was released today on the 14th of January 2000.

Liz Edwards, PR Manager at Madame Tussauds London commented: "Our Bollywood area is one of the most colourful and popular in the entire attraction - particularly with our Asian visitors. We want to ensure we continue reflecting the very best of Bollywood so we're delighted Hrithik will be joining the line up in 2011. His string of awards, box office hits and huge fan base make him a modern day icon and he truly deserves his place in the attraction."
