Hrithik Roshan: I have the humility to allow myself to be broken

In spite of clashing with Shah Rukh Khan starrer ‘Raees’, Hrithik Roshan’s ‘Kaabil’ managed to do pretty well at the Box Office. Recently in an interview with DNA, Hrithik was asked about his emotional connect with his on-screen characters. To which the actor said, “When you are playing a character like the ones I did in ‘Koi Mil Gaya’ or ‘Kaabil’, you are thinking about the thoughts and life of the character constantly. When that character goes way, you miss it.”

He continued, “Earlier, I would feel sad especially when that journey would come to an end. But I have now learnt that this is life. You have to keep looking and creating your own fun, your variety and the only way you can do that is by letting go and moving on to the next. That’s what it is about.”

Hrithik’s previous film, ‘Mohenjo Daro’, failed to perform at the Box Office. When asked about how he deals with failures and heartbreaks, the actor said, “I enjoy them! (smiles) The only two ways to grow in life is when you are proven you are wrong or when you’ve made a mistake. When the results come and you are shown that something you did was wrong, that is the truth. That is the breaking away of illusion, which is why they call it disillusionment.”

He further added, “So that is actually good as you can recalibrate yourself and you need to have the humility to allow yourself to be broken and you have to have the courage to remake yourself. And I have both, so I have no fear. I can deal with both failure and triumph and still be okay.”

Well said Hrithik, more power to you!
