Apparently Rakesh Roshan is taking it slow because of Hrithik's health issues

It's been a tough few months for Hrithik 'superhero' Roshan. A knee injury, a hand injury and the worst of all, his slip disc has been giving the actor sleepless nights.

However even though he has been training rigorously for the Krrish sequel, he has been apparently advised to take it slow before he starts shooting hardcore action sequences. Result? The film that has already seen too many changes in cast and schedule may be pushed further.

Says a source, "Hrithik cannot really sit or stand at one place for too long even at this point. Also, he has been training regularly, so there is enough pressure on the body." No wonder both his trainers are attached to his hip these days, hovering around him day and night.

Adds the source, "His family members, especially wife Sussanne is worried about his health. So they insist that his trainers stay with him, in case he encounters a problem."

The actor was spotted with the trainers even at photographer Dabboo Ratnani's party and apparently they were very much part of his birthday celebrations too.

"He has been shooting nights for the film, but currently Hrithik is busy with the promotions of Agneepath. So that is taking up a lot of time as well. So it will be a while before they start shooting the real superhero sequences."

Hrithik, who was seen interacting with the media recently, however seemed ready to get into the groove. "I have encountered many health issues in the recent past, but hopefully now things are getting better.

Krrish became such a rage, so we don't want to give the audience anything less." Whoever said getting leaner and meaner was always a good thing!
