Wasn’t impressed when I read War script for the first time : Hrithik Roshan

Bollywood actor Hrithik Roshan, while sharing his experience about the script of War, said that when he first read the script, he was not excited as he thought it was a very stupid and superficial story. The high-octane action directed by Siddharth Anand and produced by Aditya Chopra has completed two years of its release in Hindi cinema. Hrithik reveals his first reaction to the script of War. He said, well, it’s complicated. When I read the script, I didn’t see anything in it that excites me. It was very frivolous and superficial and I was in real cinema like Super 30 at that time. Hearing my response, both Sid and Adi reached my house and it took me 5 minutes to reframe the film. Adi said look at it as an entertainer movie like Dhoom: 2. Then we sat down and rewatched the whole script and I thoroughly enjoyed it and realized my own stupidity. Sometimes, it’s important to know how the director wants to interpret the script. After banging bang with Sid I could trust what they were saying. I saw this as an opportunity to try to bring weight and depth to the film with Kabir’s character, which is otherwise not seen in such films. War is the story of a secret agent Kabir, who is on a mission to nab a terrorist. The film also stars Tiger Shroff and Vaani Kapoor. Hrithik credits Aditya Chopra and Siddharth Anand for making India the biggest action entertainer ever.

He says, I think it is safe to say that it was the brilliant vision of Sid Anand and Aditya Chopra as filmmakers to make it what it is today. As a contributor, I really enjoyed being a part of War and the response it got encouraged me to work with all my heart and soul. Hrithik has always set new standards for himself and the Indian film industry.
