Comments ranged from admiration to hilarious confusion. One user asked, “Who’s the guy on the right?”, while another joked, “Roshan is now the face of the Western 50-year-old man.” Some users noted that everyday Americans often age differently due to life hardships, such as war, physical labor, and less focus on self-care.
The image also led to people discovering Roshan’s stardom. One commenter explained, “Most people don’t know him, but Hrithik is a Bollywood megastar.” Another proudly stated, “HR has gone global!” Fans highlighted his South Asian roots and his widespread appeal across continents.
Professionally, Roshan was last seen in the high-octane film Fighter with Deepika Padukone. Up next, he reprises his role as Major Kabir in War 2, which will also introduce Jr. NTR to Hindi cinema. Meanwhile, big news is that Krrish 4 will mark Hrithik’s directorial debut, taking the reins from his father Rakesh Roshan.
The buzz surrounding Roshan’s looks has now translated into global curiosity, adding to the anticipation around his upcoming films.
