Now, a book on Rakesh Roshan

28th May 2014

Bollywood Actor Hrithik Roshan released his sister Sunaina's book on their father Rakesh Roshan recently.

The book, titled 'To Dad With Love' was launched at Delhi with the whole Roshan clan in attendance.

Speaking on the occasion Sunaina said, "In To Dad With Love, I have narrated my father's moving story in the voices of those closest to him. He is a master filmmaker of blockbusters like 'Krrish 3', but was once an actor struggling to carve a niche for himself in an era of superstars. His journey, like his films, has been strewn with Herculean obstacles that he has overcome each time. And he has used his experiences and education in the film industry to launch a Gen-Next superstar in his own son, Hrithik Roshan."

Son Hrithik added, "His early years, much like the stories he tells, were wrought with setbacks and struggle, conflicts and challenges. But cast in a special quality of steel, my father didn't stumble, stoop, stop, or feel defeated by setbacks. He used those very brickbats, all of life’s experiences and the lessons imparted by the make-believe industry, to become a master storyteller, and indeed, one of the finest filmmakers of Indian cinema."

We hear that a book on Hrithik too is in the pipeline, as when Sunaina was asked what's next on her plate, she promptly said, "Maybe a book on Hrithik next!"

However, when Sunaina was later asked if her plan was definite, she said, "Oh, that was just a joke...but, you never really know. I never thought I'd write a book, but I did."
