Krrish to fly high again

Rakesh Roshan to direct Krrish sequel
The film was a super hit and so was the merchandise, especially with sporty ten-year-old boys. Brace yourself guys, your light-eyed hero will soon be back on screen for a sequel.

After the debacle of Kites, papa Rakesh Roshan has now taken it upon himself to ensure that Hrithik's career gets back on track. Rakesh Roshan will now be directing Krrish 2 with Hrithik once again playing the superhero.

So, if Kites failed to fly, Hrithik in his Krrish cape will do the needful now. Considering the first film turned out to be a blockbuster Rakesh Roshan can at least count on a couple of his loyal Krrish fans to turn up, maybe even with their eye-masks on, for the sequel.

Our source said, "The meetings for the sequel have already started. The Roshans have not taken the failure of Kites lightly and are making sure that the hit combination continues. Rakesh Roshan and Hrithik Roshan have done only three films together in ten years, which include Hrithik's debut film Kaho Naa… Pyaar hai, Koi Mil Gaya and Krrish. After that Rakesh wanted to take a break and produce films. In midst of all this, Rakyesh Omprakash Mehra was to direct the sequel of Krrish and many meetings were organised for that but it all fizzled out."

Apparently, the Roshans got busy with Kites. Now that that is out of the way, Rakesh after thinking long and hard, has decided to take matters in his own hand. He is currently meeting regularly with his trusted writer Robin Bhatt. The basic idea of the sequel has been fixed and the work on the scripting has started. They plan to bring in some other writer for the dialogues but Rakesh Roshan and Robin Bhatt will write the screenplay.

The buzz was that papa Roshan had dropped the idea of making the sequel after the release of James Cameron's Avtaar. Roshan thought that Avtar has already seen so much special effects. However that's the thing of the past and Krrish sequel is definitely happening." 

Roshan remained unavailable for comment.
