Bollywood superstar Hrithik Roshan celebrates his birthday on January 10. Fondly called the Greek God of showbiz, Hrithik has been a heartthrob for years, courtesy of his swoon-worthy looks. While the actor rose to stardom with his debut film Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai in 2000, Hrithik struggled to find impactful roles in the years after. One film that has stuck with every millennial is Main Prem Ki Diwani Hoon (2003) alongside Kareena Kapoor, which made Hrithik a meme material with the advent of social media.
Hrithik Roshan played the role of Prem Kishan, who falls in love with Kareena Kapoor. He comes bearing an extremely energetic persona, which continues to leave viewers in splits. When asked about the same, he told Film Companion, I was not mature enough to understand that side of me. I generally don`t gravitate toward characters that are that far away in essence. A very happy a very uppity `Wo ho ah ah` all that doesn`t come very naturally to me and at that point in time, I wasn`t aware of the fact that there are some things that are not natural to your state. Even if you tried really hard, which I did, you would still fail. But I tried, I gave it my best shot.”
