Rakesh Roshan: “There Is No Immediate Plan For Krrish 4”

Mohnish Singh |Nov 14, 2019

Rakesh Roshan has been working on the fourth instalment of his superhero franchise Krrish for a long time now. However, the project is talking a lot of time in getting started.

Filmmaker Rakesh Roshan has not directed any film in the past six years. His last directorial was Krrish 3 (2013), featuring son Hrithik Roshan alongside Priyanka Chopra and Kangana Ranaut. In 2018, he announced that the next instalment of the home-grown superhero Krrish franchise would hit the marquee on Christmas 2020. However, things did not go as planned and Krrish 4 kept getting postponed again and again.

In the past few months, we have seen a barrage of reports stating that Rakesh Roshan is going to start the new instalment of the Krrish franchise soon. The latest reports suggest that the project go on the shooting floor in January 2020. However, quashing all reports, the filmmaker has said that there are no immediate plans for Krrish 4, and he wants to recover fully before beginning production. “There is no immediate plan for Krrish 4. I need to recover fully before resuming work,” says the filmmaker.

The reports of the next Krrish movie coming back on track were fuelled by Hrithik Roshan, who said, “Right after War (2019), I am going to sit with my father, get everyone together, and restart work on Krrish 4. We had put it a little on the side because dad was recovering. Now that he is better, we will kickstart it once more.”

A trade source had also confirmed the same recently, “After the huge success of his last two movies, Super 30 (2019) and War, Hrithik Roshan has been flooded with some really good offers but the actor is being choosy and biding his time. While there has been talk that he has put Farah Khan and Rohit Shetty’s Seven on hold till the script is re-written, Hrithik and Rakesh Roshan have been sitting in all creatives of Krrish 4 so they are all set to announce it by this year. Hrithik’s next movie announcement will be Krrish 4 which begins shoot from January next year. They would have announced it earlier but as the filmmaker was recovering from his illness, it took time. But for the last few months, Rakesh Roshan has been sitting on the script and fine-tuning all other details.”
