Acclaimed writer-lyricist Javed Akhtar is stunned after seeing "Krrish 3" and is amazed to see the level of techniques and special effects in the film.

"It will take me a day or two to contain my amazement. I am stunned to see that our country can also make films with such finesse and superior technique," the 68-year-old said here Thursday at a special screening of the film.

"The techniques and special effects in the film are not less than any international film," he added.

Javed applauded director Rakesh Roshan calling "Krrish 3" a director's film.

"It is a time of good movies and it is a good film. I congratulate Rakesh Roshan, it is truly a director's film. The way he conceived it and made it, is wonderful," Javed said.

"Krrish 3" is the third film in the franchise that began with "Koi... Mil Gaya" in 2003. It features Hrithik Roshan in the role of a superhero while Vivek Oberoi plays Kaal, the villain.

It also stars Kangana Ranaut and Priyanka Chopra and hit theatres Friday.
