Hrithik Roshan Biography
Hrithik Roshan is an Indian actor and producer known for his dancing ability, screen presence and work across action, drama, romance and science-fiction films. He became a major star with his leading-role debut in Kaho Naa… Pyaar Hai in 2000, a film that turned him into one of Hindi cinema’s most recognisable new performers. His career has since included commercial blockbusters, critically acclaimed roles and performances that required significant physical or emotional transformation.
Born Hritik Rakesh Nagrath in Mumbai, Hrithik grew up in a family connected to the Hindi film industry. His father, Rakesh Roshan, worked as an actor and filmmaker, and his grandfather Roshan was a respected music composer. Hrithik appeared as a child actor in several films and later worked behind the camera as an assistant director on projects made by his father. That experience gave him exposure to filmmaking before he became a leading performer in his own right.
After his debut, Hrithik received praise for roles in Fiza and Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham. Koi… Mil Gaya became a major turning point, and he later returned to the superhero character in Krrish and Krrish 3. His filmography also includes Lakshya, Dhoom 2, Jodhaa Akbar, Guzaarish, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, Agneepath, Super 30, War and Fighter. These roles show a willingness to move between genres and to prepare physically for demanding performances. His dancing has also become a signature part of his public identity.
Hrithik married Sussanne Khan in 2000; they divorced in 2014 and share two sons, Hrehaan and Hridhaan. He has since been publicly associated with actor and musician Saba Azad. Hrithik generally keeps his children away from unnecessary publicity while sharing selected family moments. He has also supported health and charitable causes and launched business ventures, including a fitness-focused brand.
His personal wealth is not officially audited in public records, and online estimates vary. His career is better understood through his awards, film choices and long-standing influence on Hindi action and dance performances.
