“He Puts Himself Last”, Siddharth Anand On Working With Hrithik Roshan In ‘Fighter’

Bollywood filmmaker Siddharth Anand has heaps of praises for the leading actor Hrithik Roshan of his upcoming film Fighter. The two have previously collaborated on the film War, which was a massive success. Talking about the great respect and admiration for the Super 30 actor the director has, Anand said, “There's nothing else that a director can ask for from an actor that Hrithik can't give you. I think you have to actually challenge yourself and come up with something time and again, every hour on the set that you can utilise his potentia. Which I think none of us have yet been able to do and it's a challenge for all of us.” 

 

Adding further of how motivating it is to work with Roshan, Anand said, “It's really exciting and motivating to be with him and in one of my earlier interviews I have said that I'd always aspired to become a filmmaker that Hrithik Roshan would do a film with, that I can just work with him or even just bounce off my ideas by him and get his feedback. Because there's a hidden filmmaker in him which not many actors are, and he looks at a broad perspective of the film, so when you do a 2 hero film with him it's a joy because he's not looking at himself at all he's only strengthening around him that will directly uplift the film. I think he puts himself last which I think is a great joy to be working with someone like that.” Fighter is slated to be India’s first ever aerial action film and stars Deepika Padukone as the leading lady.
