It was reported that Hrithik Roshan will finally start shooting for Krrish 4 in summer this year. However, the film has been delayed further. Reportedly Siddharth Anand has backed out as the producer of the film. His banner Marflix was on board as a producer for the big-budget film. The makers are also on the hunt for a new director as Rakesh Roshan who helmed the previous installments has decided to pass on the baton.
According to a report in Bollywood Hungama, the budget of Krrish 4 has touched Rs 700 crore. This massive sum has made it difficult for production houses to commit to the film. Concerns around the film's relevance in the post-Marvel eras is being said to be the reason behind Anand stepping back from the film. The report quoted a source, who said, "The studios were not confident about Krrish at this budget in the post-Marvel era as it has been more than a decade since the release of Krrish 4."
