Tiger said, "He is the reason why I do what I do. I always tell people that he's the blueprint I follow as an actor."
He further added, "I admire him so I think about him like that - maybe think about how he would have stood, how he would have danced or said something in a particular scene."
Tiger is known to have spoken at length about Hrithik's stardom and how he is the ultimate superstar for him possessing all the qualities one could imagine.
Having said that, Tiger's statement comes across as a finding of sorts that Bollywood hasn't seen a superstar other than Hrithik Roshan in the recent past.
Hrithik emerged to fame with his debut film, touched the lengths of stardom ever since.
After the Khan's, Hrithik is the only existing Superstar in today's times.
The actor not only has a good control over urban India, but is relative even in the rural areas.
Hrithik has been the last actor to have a Pan India connect post the Khan's and that is what justifies his current fandom.
He has also set career goals for all the emerging actors in town.
The newest to have been walking on Hrithik's path is Tiger Shroff following which Actor Sidharth Malhotra also expressed his awe for Hrithik by posting on social media how Hrithik knows how to `raise the bar higher and higher`.
Looks like the newbies have a lot to take away from Hrithik, the reigning superstar of Bollywood at present.
