World’s Third Most Handsome Man on The Man Magazine (January 2017)

Non-stop shoots, prepping for his movie roles, endorsements, interviews and travelling to exotic places—there are no dull moments in the life of Hrithik Roshan and now he is on cover of The Man Magazine, January 2017 issue.

 His earlier choices were defined by looks and commercial viability. He’d rather have been on the sets of a film that he thought wasn’t ten on a scale of ten, but was at least 7.5. He prefers being creative in other ways and doesn’t always run after career and money. He keeps himself enthusiastic and loves to be engaged in activities like painting, travel the world or anything that can drive him crazy.

He’s undoubtedly a perfectionist, but Hrithik Roshan at 42 figures he can survive a dud or two like Siddarth Anands action film Bang Bang with Katrina Kaif that tanked and Ashutosh Gowarikar’s exquisite, but deplorable Mohenjo Daro.

This year and some previous year have been harsh on the actor, who suffered a back injury and then had a brain surgery in 2013.

Right now Hrithik is at peace with himself and he feels centered and content. He is having fun boot camping with his boys, going on road trips, zip lining at 300ft in the air through forests, going for 4 a.m. safaris in Africa and sleeping under the stars in the desert. Hrithik Roshans son Hridhaan and Hrehaan, are fascinated by the thought of being actors. “I tell them it’s going to be their decision, but they are open to exploring the idea,” he reveals.

Hrithik in his upcoming film Kaabil plays a blind man and there’s tremendous pressure to make moviegoers choke on their popcorn, and it looks like stars will fall into places for him.

Cheerful, amiable, quick and thorough, endlessly patient for the retakes, that is what describes Emraan Hashmi. He is that rare species in Bollywood who does not wear the halo of stardom around him. Giving multiple hits to the Bollywood industry, Gangster, Once Upon a Time in Mumbai, Murder, Raaz to name a few, A-list stardom might have escaped him, but he is more or less steady at the box office.

Choosing to do the title role in Azhar, the biopic on the former captain of the Indian cricket team, Mohammed Azharuddin, Emraan wanted to move away from what he’d been doing saying, “I needed the challenge.” Directed by Tony D'Souza, the movie is based on the life Azharuddin, who was implicated in a cricket match-fixing scandal in 2000, and banned by BCCI for life.

Apart from this his future project includes Raaz 4 which is a sequel of his debut hit movie Raaz. Brushing off the slight melancholy, he rues in reference to films, “I fear flops.” The twinkle is back in his eyes when he expands, “Anyone who says otherwise is a liar. You spend so much time on a film. Your heart and soul has gone into it and then it doesn’t work out. Everyone fears a flop.”
