Bollywood
star
Hrithik
Roshan
turned
a
older
yesterday.
While
birthday
wishes
poured
for
him
on
social
media
from
all
nooks
and
corners,
director
Karan
Malhotra
in
an
interaction
with
a
leading
news
portal
was
all
praise
for
the
actor.
The
director
told
India
Today
that
he
feels
that
Hrithik
deserves
more
in
his
career
and
was
quoted
as
saying,
Honestly,
I
wish
he
gets
what
he
deserves,
because
I
think
he
deserves
much
more
than
what
he
is
getting
as
an
artiste,
an
actor
and
a
star.
I
just
hope
he
gets
all
of
that
on
his
birthday."
Karan
who
made
his
directorial
debut
in
the
Hindi
film
industry
with
the
2012
film
Agneepath
with
Hrithik
heaped
praise
on
his
hero
and
said,
"I
think
Hrithik
is
a
very
special
kind
of
a
performer,
he
is
very
unique.
He
is
one
of
a
kind
in
the
sense
that
when
I
worked
with
him
in
my
first
film,
Agneepath,
I
was
a
nobody,
but
he
completely
surrendered
to
my
vision
despite
being
a
big
star.
He
gave
his
all.
He
brought
so
much
sincerity
to
the
character,
so
much
vulnerability
that
no
one
else
could
have.
And
he's
a
man
who
loves
challenges.
You
see
any
of
his
work,
it
is
full
of
challenges
for
him
as
a
performer
and
I
think
he
loves
that.
He
loves
being
thrown
off,
loves
being
open
to
ideas
that
are
unique
and
might
be
new
for
him."
Karan
further
shared
that
they
shared
a
very
cordial
relationship
on
sets
and
called
him
a
director's
actor
and
a
team
player.
"He's
excited
like
a
child,
constantly
exploring.
I
think
after
so
many
years
of
work,
he
is
constantly
exploring,
his
excitement
is
literally
like
a
child
on
set
-
constantly
curious,
wanting
to
discover,
wanting
to
try
new
things
and
that
is
phenomenal," the
Shamshera
director
added.
He
also
revealed
a
secret
about
the
Kaabil
actor
and
went
on
to
say,
"I
think
personally,
Hrithik
has
a
very
funny
side
that
not
many
have
seen.
I
hope
to
see
more
of
that.
He
has
a
very
relaxed
side
too.
When
he
is
on
set,
he's
working,
concentrating
and
is
very
serious
about
his
craft.
Apart
from
that,
he's
a
very
chilled-out,
funny
guy,
which
I
think
he
very
rarely
shows
to
people."
On
being
asked
to
name
his
favorite
movie
featuring
the
actor,
Karan
named
Agneepath
and
said,
"If
I
say
Agneepath,
I'll
sound
pompous.
But
I
think
he
was
really
superlative
in
that
because
he
was
the
Hrithik
Roshan
that
we
hadn't
seen
before.
I
also
really
loved
him
in
Koi...Mil
Gaya
and
Guzaarish.
He
was
fantastic.
As
a
director,
that
is
what
I
enjoy
about
Hrithik.
Apart
from
his
looks,
he
has
so
much
more
in
him.
In
both
those
films,
it
is
just
about
his
performance
and
craft.
Also,
they
are
such
diverse
roles.
So
I
find
these
two
films
of
Hrithik
very
special."
Hrithik
Roshan
will
next

seen

Pushkar
Gayathri's
Vikram
Vedha
co-starring

Ali
Khan
and
