Hrithik Roshan Explains Why He Was Unsure About Doing Vikram Vedha: I Don't Think I Was Evolved Enough To Play... (Details Inside)
Vikram Vedha, one of the year's most critically acclaimed films, cast Hrithik Roshan in a fresh light, displaying his versatility. The actor's experimental and unusual performance gained him enormous praise and love from critics as well as the audience; now that the film has been distributed online, the crowd is once again praising the breadth of Hrithik Roshan's skill.
In a recent radio interview, Hrithik Roshan revealed the process of taking up Vedha in Vikram Vedha. “It was a terrific platform for me to set myself free. You rarely get a chance where you can just get lost in the fun of the moment. Vedha was such a character wherein you could let him loose, you could let him do whatever he wants to do. I have been skeptical of playing such characters in my life, because I don’t think I was evolved enough to play someone with such composure. But when I was offered Vedha I thought I could do justice to this now because I’ve lived enough life to understand Vedha’s mind.”
Among the most notable and well-liked aspects of the film was Hrithik Roshan's chart-topping single Alcoholia, which gained him plaudits for his effortless and smooth dance skills. In response, Hrithik Roshan stated in a recent radio interview, “I had a lot of fun in Alcoholia. Vedha to dance was a challenge and it was a wonderful challenge. For me this was a learning experience, because I was skeptical or scared of that kind of expressions. It does happen when people compliment you for a certain kind of expressions and looks, like in Dhoom 2, Bang Bang or War. When you get compliments for those types of looks, you get scared of doing something opposite of it. However, the keeda within is stronger than the fear, so my desire to let myself free for Vedha was such a good opportunity for me. It was absolutely incredible. I did every expression that I would do in my own personal space, it’s the person I am, this is the entirety of me, I just let everything out. I had a lot of fun and I’m really surprised, I was actually shocked when the song came out and people complimented me after watching it. I felt really good because I had myself go with this song and done things which I thought I was wrong. However, people in turn gave me such compliments. This is what it means to be an actor, to continuously keep exploring, nothing is right, nothing is wrong, it is just expression. When it comes to expressions, if you’re being honest and your integrity to the character is strong then nothing is wrong, you can do whatever you want and it will be received with love.”
Hrithik Roshan, known for his Greek God looks, took on the challenge of presenting an utterly rustic and unkempt look for Vedha, and he absolutely aced it. The actor has received acclaim for his dedication to the role as well as his dramatic and impactful performance.
