A busy couple of years for Hrithik

Normally sticking to a release or may be two a year, actor Hrithik Roshan seems to have taken a leaf out of co-star Akshay Kumar and Salman Khan this year, as he has reportedly signed on five films. Roshan usually has a long gap between two releases. While his last movie 'Kaabil' released in January last year, his upcoming 'Super 30' will only open in cinemas in January, next year. Actors like Khan are of the view that one should have multiple releases in a year to keep the revenue flowing in the industry. Hrithik had previously with the thought saying, “Yes, there's a huge crunch at the box office and I totally agree with what Salman has said. I'm trying to do that, but I'm not finding amazing films. I'm totally open to doing at least two films every year.”

And now it seems like the actor has finally opened up to the idea. “Hrithik has as many as five films lined in the next two years. That's a marked change from his usual model. He has okayed around five projects, which are likely to be shot one after the other,” a source said. The actor is currently shooting for 'Super 30'. “Hrithik will wrap it by the end of next month. Right after that, he has given bulk dates to Yash Raj Films for director Siddharth Anand's film co-starring Tiger Shroff, which will be shot in a start-to-finish schedule from August to December.”

He has also given a green signal to Rohit Dhawan's next. “Sajid Nadiadwala is producing the film. Rohit starts his mass entertainer in February 2019, right after 'Super 30's ' release. The makers are currently in the process of finalising the female lead and are in talks with Disha Patani to star opposite him,” the source said. Also in the pipeline are 'Krrish 4' and 'Krrish 5', which will be made simultaneously as a two-part series model. They are slated to release in 2020 and 2021.
