Career


Roshan's first movie role was as a child artist when he was six years old in the 1980 movie Aasha, when he appeared in a dance sequence as an extra. Roshan went on to appear in Aap Ki Deewane (1980) and Bhagwan Dada (1986) playing minor roles. Roshan then became an assistant director for his father's films Karan Arjun (1995) and Koyla (1997). Roshan made his debut as a leading man in the 2000 film Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai opposite another debutante actress Amisha Patel. The film was directed by his father and proved to be very successful at the box office, becoming the highest grossing film of 2000[1] and winner of the Filmfare Best Movie Award. Roshan's performance earned him the Filmfare Best Debut Award and the Filmfare Best Actor Award. The film Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai entered the Limca Book of Records in 2003 for the most number of Awards won by a Bollywood Film - 102 awards.[2] In 2000, Roshan starred in Fiza, which did poorly commercially but was critically acclaimed, and Mission Kashmir which did average at the box office In 2001, Hrithik starred in Yaadein which was a failure at the box office and Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham which did extremely well at the box office, becoming the second-highest grossing film of 2001.[4] Roshan had an unsuccessful year in 2002 when all three of his releases - Mujhse Dosti Karoge!, Na Tum Jaano Na Hum, Aap Mujhe Achche Lagne Lage - failed to make an impact the box office and were declared flops.[5] In 2003, his film Koi... Mil Gaya was the highest grosser of the year and won many Filmfare Awards, including another Filmfare Best Actor Award for Hrithik.[6]He had only one release in 2004, Lakshya, directed by Farhan Akhtar, which did not do well at the box office[7] although critics called it his most impressive performance so far.[8] Roshan took a two-year break from acting before resurfacing with the superhero film Krrish, a sequel to his 2003 hit Koi Mil Gaya which released in June 2006. Krrish was a major box office success and one of the highest grossers of 2006.[9] His most recent release is Dhoom 2, a sequel to the 2004 hit Dhoom, in which he played a negative role (a villain) for the first time. The film released on November 24, 2006 and is also among the highest grossing films of 2006. [

Controversy


] In 2001, a rumour alleging Roshan made disparaging remarks about Nepal and its people caused outrage in the country. Several newspapers carried the report, leading to student protests, in which four people died. [13] The unrest the protests caused forced the government to cancel a flight from Kathmandu to India.[14]Later the Indian embassy and the actor himself clarified that he had made no such remarks. [15] In 2006, at the London press conference for his film Krrish, Roshan said that he knew it was time to leave Shanghai and Hong Kong after six weeks of stunt training and go home when his eyes started "turning into little slits like the Chinese".[16]
