Krrish 4: Bollywood's most popular superhero franchise, 'Krrish,' is ready to make a grand comeback for the audience. This time, the story is even bigger, the scope is even more thrilling, and the 'Hrithik impact' on screen will be more powerful than ever before.

Hrithik Roshan to Debut as Director
The biggest surprise this time is that Hrithik Roshan himself is going to direct Krrish 4. Yes, this will be Hrithik's first directorial film. Until now, the command of this franchise was in the hands of his father, Rakesh Roshan, but now he has stepped down from directing and has entrusted this big responsibility to his son. This step is a big risk in itself, but fans are very excited considering Hrithik's vision, style, and experience.
Hrithik to Appear in Three Roles, Increasing the Thrill
In Krrish 4, Hrithik Roshan will be seen playing three different characters for the first time. In the previous parts, he played a double role, featuring Rohit (father) and Krrish (superhero son). Now, a third character will also enter the story of the film, who will either be a villain or related to a time-traveling mystery. This character will make the story even more exciting, and it is certain that Hrithik will once again surprise the audience with his every look and style.
Jadoo's Return: An Emotional Surprise
The alien character 'Jadoo,' who appeared in 'Koi... Mil Gaya' released in 2003, had made a special place in the hearts of children and adults across the country. This character with blue skin, big eyes, and magical powers will once again return to the screen after 23 years. According to reports, Jadoo's return in the story of 'Krrish 4' will be a turning point, which will give new expansion to Krrish's powers and story. The makers will use advanced VFX and performance capture technology for this.
Three Heroines, Three Angles: Rekha, Preity, and Priyanka
Talking about the leading ladies of the film, there will be a triple blast this time. Rekha, Preity Zinta, and Priyanka Chopra — all three actresses will be seen in the lead roles in the film.
- Rekha will once again be seen in the role of Rohit (Hrithik's character)'s mother.

This casting also connects the 'Krrish' franchise to the nostalgia that the audience has loved before.
