Superheroes need a break every once in a while. But Hindi cinema’s favourite superhero, Krrish, has been missing from the big screen for almost a decade. After Hrithik Roshan last reprised the titular role in Krrish 3 (2013), rumours abounded in 2020 that filmmaker Rakesh Roshan and his actor-son were gearing up for the fourth instalment of the sci-fi film franchise. Three years on, the director reveals that scripting is underway. “Krrish 4 will not begin before the end of next year. We are working on the script, and pre-production will begin only after that,” states Rakesh.
