Bollywood superstar Hrithik Roshan, who made his acting debut with the 2000 film Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai directed by Rakesh Roshan, was unaware that his father had mortgaged their house and cars for the movie. In the Netflix docuseries The Roshans, Hrithik recalls having a heated argument with Rakesh during which he learned about their financial woes.

Hrithik shared, “My father was, is, and always will be someone who loves deeply. But his expression of love was the kind that was taught to him when he was growing up. I don’t think that he was granted the kind of compassion from the world, so the only way he learned was to be hard on himself. And that is how he expresses his love, and it’s often misunderstood.”
