Mumbai:
Shah Rukh Khan and Hrithik Roshan have been bonding big time for a while now. Their personal rapport is likely to extend to a professional level as well. Khan has been offered a role in the Roshans' home production Krrish 2.
Says a source, "Shah Rukh and Hrithik are the best of pals in the industry today. It was but natural for Rakesh to etch a role in his son's flick for his buddy as well. SRK's character in the film will have shades of gray to it."
Adds the source, "The Roshans have already sounded Khan off about having him in their project. And he has told them that he can be available only after the release of his production Ra.One."
The sequel to Rakesh Roshan's 2006 flick has been in the pipeline for a while. After the debacle of Kites and Guzaarish, Rakesh Roshan has taken it upon himself to ensure that his son's career gets back on track. And considering that Koi Mil Gaya and Krrish did well at the box office, it is time Hrithik wore his superhero cape to create magic again on screen.
Buzz is that Deepika Padukone has been finalised for Krissh 2.
Rakesh Roshan however maintains, "We have not yet finalised the cast for Krrish 2. We are still working on the script after which I will begin casting. Presently I am out of the country."
The last time SRK and Hrithik came together on screen was in Karan Johar's Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham (2001).
If there was any animosity between Shah Rukh Khan and Hrithik Roshan (during Koi Mila Gaya and later during the Krazzy 4 song controversy), it is history now. Hrithik has now become a permanent name on that exclusive list of invitees to Mannat.
He and wife Sussanne have been at all parties at Shah Rukh's home and vice versa. Both stars have been catching up on each other often despite their busy schedules. The friendship between wives Gauri and Sussanne also brought them more closer.
When Krrish had released, Hrithik had a special screening for Shah Rukh Khan so he could get a frank opinion from him.
