We grew up at the movies. He and I. Well almost. Its easy to lapse into nostalgia about Hrithik Roshan. Not that he’s old. Not that I’m very young either. I’m guessing we are the same age. As a rookie reporter, I still recall him sitting outside Shah Rukh Khan’s make-up room at Filmistan Studio, shooting the breeze on the sets of his father’s film King Uncle. Duggu ( as he’s known) was assisting on the film. SRK had told me then that the boy was being primed for stardom.

A lot has changed since then. The world has shrunk. Hrithik Roshan became a superstar of stars. All in the blink of a showbiz flash. Somehow he still seems like that beautiful boy of 23.
