Hrithik Roshan went de-glam in THESE movies & still managed to win hearts
Despite being one of the most good-looking actors in Bollywood, Hrithik Roshan looked very different in some movies but still managed to woo his audience. Read.
Hrithik Roshan has played some of the most glamorous roles on the silver screen over all these years. However, on some rare occasions, the actor had gone for a completely de-glamourous look. Here is a list of such Hrithik Roshan's movies where despite performing an offbeat role, the actor managed to steal the audience's hearts:
Super 30
In this movie, Hrithik Roshan plays the character of Anand Kumar, a mathematician from Patna. He rises through the challenges thrown at him and ultimately emerges successful. He then runs the Super 30 programme for students aspiring to get into IIT. Hrithik Roshan went for a completely de-glamorised look to be able to fit into the character if a humble man from a simple background. He also lost a lot of weight. While in some scenes he sports an unruly hair with an overgrown beard, in other scenes he is seen sporting a clean-shaved look. However, despite this, he delivered a phenomenal performance and managed to woo the audience on the silver screen in Super 30.
Koi...Mil Gaya
Koi...Mil Gaya was reportedly one of the toughest performances of Hrithik Roshan. While standing at a height of five feet ten inches with an amazing posture, Hrithik had to play the role of a lean and lanky mentally disabled boy. He even sported glasses and too up some crazy, childish antics to fully get into the character. According to reports, he and his father, Rakesh Roshan had been advised for a lot of people against making the movie because it would not do well. However, proving all such words wrong, Hrithik shone in the character of Rohit in Koi...Mil Gaya and it endeared him forever in the hearts of his audience.
Guzaarish
Guzaarish saw Hrithik Roshan playing a quadriplegic magician who wishes to for euthanasia. The movie covers his battle with the court and his romance with his caretaker, Sofia D'Souza (Aishwarya Rai). In this movie, Hrithik Roshan had a mop of curly hair and sported a beard. For almost the entire duration of the movie, he was restricted to a wheelchair. However, he still managed to woo the audience with his performance even though the movie performed only average at the box office.
Lakshya
Lakshya sees Hrithik Roshan once again as a lean and lanky youth who leads an aimless life. He joins the army on a whim but leaves it when he finds the life of a soldier to be difficult. However, he joins it once again after this creates a conflict with his girlfriend. Very different from his chocolate boy characters, Hrithik managed to get into the skin of this millennial youth with similar kinds of clothes and hairstyle in Lakshya. But still, the audience seemed mighty impressed with his performance especially in the song, Main Aisa Kyun Hoon.
