It began from the beginning. Hrithik's first film Kaho Naa...Pyaar Hai released on January 14, 2000 and we know what happened next. The film was the highest grossing film of that year. Hrithik scooped up both the Best Debut and Best Actor awards that year. He was a craze, a phenomena who is still unmatchable. Bollywood is yet to see a frenzy of such nature after him. He was just PERFECT. Exceptionally good looking, sweet, innocent and someone who dances like a dream. Bollywood hadn't seen anyone who could move like that before. He even had the perfect physique. Resultant? It was a blockbuster even before its release.
Many years later, in 2012, Hrithik saw another January release in Agneepath. The remake of Amitabh Bachchan's award winning film had everyone talking. Hrithik, who is known to give 100 percent to all his filma, went out of his way to make sure that his role of Vijay Dinanath Chauhan is perfect. After all, he had large shoes to fill what with Bachchan picking up a National Award for the same character for the 1990 film. But it's HR. He was simply brilliant in the role. And the best part about his portrayal was he never ever tried to emulate Bachchan. He just brought his identity and acting skills to the film. As you all know, the film was the first 100 crore film of that year.
Next year, Kaabil will release on January 25 which has blockbuster written all over it. It's a complete package and everything we love Hrithik for. He will romance, he will dance, he will fight and he will make us choke with emotions...and all that when he is playing a blind guy. We doubt there's anyone in the industry who's managed to achieve so much in one film! Hence, we are dying to see January begin!
