Mumbai:
Filmmaker Rakesh Roshan feelsportraying a villain in Hindi films is easy but projecting asuper villain is an daunting task.
Roshan's upcoming Krrish 3 is the third film in thesci-fi genre after hit films Koi Mil Gaya and Krrish."Krrish has been established as a superhero. Thedifficulty was how to make a super villain. We had to makesure the powers of super villain were more than that ofsuperhero. It is all been very difficult. To make a villain isvery easy in Hindi films but to make a super villain is verydifficult," Roshan told PTI.
"To make a super villain was a creative call and not acommercial one. Now who will be in his gang, so we havemutants - one of it is Kaya (Kangana Ranaut)," he said.
Roshan contemplated putting Krrish 3 on back burneras creatively things weren't working out. "In a superhero filmthere is a superhero and a super villain. Hollywood makes a oneand a half hour film... they meet, they fight, they meet theyfight. But the content value is not that much. In Indian filmsthey need content. I wasn't getting good content which wouldsatisfy me," he said.
Roshan wrote two scripts for Krrish 3 and wasn'thappy with both of them and he started working on some othersubjects. But, at the back of his mind, Krrish 3 was there."This is a new genre for me because we don't make suchkind of films. We are not trained to make such films. Hence,it was challenging as well as exciting. Hollywood has beenmaking such films for last 40-50 years," he said.
"When you know your story is strong, then all specialeffects, vfx etc are just decorations. I see a lot of filmsand special effects are a part of your imagination," he said.
