Hrithik Roshan fights an elephant By Behindwoods News Bureau. June 02, 2007
Ashutosh Gowarikar, acclaimed for Lagaan and Swades, is all set to reach epic proportions with his latest movie, Jodha-Akbar. J-A stars Hrithik Roshan as Akbar and Aishwarya Rai (sorry Bachchan) as Jodha Bhai. The movie has already stirred the hornet's nest, as people don't want to misinterpret the relationship between Jodha and Akbar. [Hrithik] Amid all these controversies, Ashutosh Gowarikar was unable to screen the movie in Cannes as he wished to, but was able to show the promo of this historical epic. The slick and stylish trailer exclusively screened for Cannes, impressed many international distributors and officials from other film festivals alike. The reactions Ashutosh received for the movie was amazing. The most impressive aspect of the trailer was a scene where Hrithik fights an elephant. Hrithik, considered to be the Indian Rambo, is the only star in Indian cinema that could make this scene believable. What do you say? Apart from this, Cannes', a magazine rated Ashutosh Gowarikar as one of the top 60 people to watch out for at the festival this year. This director is sure poised for greater heights. http://www.behindwoods.com/tamil-movie-news/june-07-01/02-06-07-hrithik-\ roshan.html <http://www.behindwoods.com/tamil-movie-news/june-07-01/02-06-07-hrithik\ -roshan.html>
