Koi Mil Gaya, Krrish, and Krrish 3, the films in the Hrithik Roshan starrer superhero franchise, have been directed by Rakesh Roshan. Fans are eagerly waiting for the next installment, Krrish 4. However, earlier the filmmaker announced his retirement from direction. He has now opened up about the same, saying that him directing the movie doesn’t guarantee that it would be a blockbuster.

In an interview with Bollywood Hungama, Rakesh Roshan was asked to share his feelings about someone else directing Krrish 4 instead of him. He said that there would be a day when he has to ‘pass on the baton’ of the franchise. Roshan expressed his belief that thus it was better to do it in his senses so that he could supervise the project and see if it’s being made correctly or not. “Tomorrow, if I am not in my senses and I’ll have to pass it on, I will not know what they are making,” he stated.

The filmmaker further revealed that he didn’t feel sad about not directing the Hrithik Roshan film. He shared that the chance has to be taken. Rakesh Roshan added, “Also, there’s no guarantee that if Rakesh Roshan directs Krrish 4, it’ll be a blockbuster.” He said that even the opposite could happen.
