Rakesh Roshan expressed his delight at having Aditya Chopra as the producer, saying, “It brings me so much joy to see someone like Adi as the producer of Krrish 4. It was he who convinced Hrithik to sit in the director’s chair,” in a press note.
Rakesh Roshan added, “Hrithik and Adi coming together as a producer-director pair with me behind them is a rare and deliciously creative combination! I’m sure they will turn Krrish 4 into a theatrical experience that has never been made in India.”
