Hrithik all the way as Krrish Rocks

I somewhere read - A Hero is someone we can admire without apology.

There is something absolutely mesmerizing with a Hrithik Roshan Closeup, that irrespective of your sex you actually adore the guy. Before i get those eyebrows raised, i would like to say it in the very nicest of ways and not the sleaziest ones.

Krrish is an out and out Hrithik Roshan movie. He plays the good man to a nicety, without getting pulverized by the world around.

As we all know, Krrish is sequel to Koi Mil Gaya and from the starting scene, Rekha starts off from where she stopped in KMG - Hamming her way.

The movie is all about a young Krishna - son of Rohit, name of Hrithik in KMG, who grows up and being his father's son, he also has the mystical powers which JADOO bestowed on Rohit. Krishna grows up in the wild, since Rekha -his dadi feels he is best protected from the eyes of the bad by keeping her grand-son in the lovely terrains of *land i would like to know*.
However Krishna soon falls in love with Priyanka ( who looks really bad ) and heads off behind her to Singapore. However since he has promised his granny before leaving that he would not let the world know who he is, he gets to a couple of tough situations and does a couple of good samaritan act under a mask and becomes the superhero - KRRISH. In doing so he also happens to rescue his dad who is caught in the clutches of a villian ( some software behemoth played by Naseeruddin Shah ).

In between there is the small matter of falling in love with Priyanka, re-uniting with father and regular hindi melodrama - Kutte tune itne din ek baap ko apne bete, ek ma ko apne bete se door rakha.

Now reading the story u must be wondering, it must be a lacklustre movie, which would hardly be able to take off.
But somehow Hrithik puts so much life into Krishna first and Rahul later, that u can hardly not enjoy the movie. The Stunts are the best i have seen so far for an indian movie (i would say it is better than Spiderman also ) and is in moderated dosages. The Super-Hero act is also limited and does not act as overkill. Add to that, Hrithik's Dancing skills and emoting ( which after Lakshya has improved in leaps and bounds) and we really have a great movie.

Couple of things during the movie, which i could not stop myself from sharing -

I had stepped into the theatre with a good friend - Mridul Gupta - and
in the first shot when young Hrithik races with a horse, he said - if Hrithik grows up while running, i will tear my hair apart ( psst... he has grown quite longish hair ) and grow did Hrithik along the course of the sprint and tear my friend didnt.
( He did treat me a Coffee to make me forget his promise of tearing his hair apart ).

- Secondly Priyanka was there in the movie only to add the glamour angle to it but she looked so awful throughout the movie , both of us kept wondering why Rakesh Roshan did not cast Rakhi Sawant ( for what reasons ?? - Are you kidding me - the obvious one ) in her place.

- Thirdly i think Hrithik would be the favourite hero of kids. His natural ease with kids on screen is so much fun.

Finally, None of the multi-starrer movies for Hrithik, he has got the charisma, talent, skill - dancing, acting to pull off a film on his own.

There is an element of honesty about him which you can hardly miss and if not for his other abilities, he is one of my fav heros.

Love him or hate him, he truly is a star in the making.
