On August 14th, Indian cinema will witness one of its most significant clashes. Hrithik Roshan, the Bollywood superstar, will compete with South cinema’s megastar Rajinikanth as their films, ‘War 2’ and ‘Coolie’, both hit theaters on the same day. This cinematic showdown will see Hrithik, who is considerably younger, going up against the veteran actor. Interestingly, the history books reveal that Hrithik Roshan was a child artist in a film with Rajinikanth, 39 years ago.
With a lineage deeply rooted in the film industry, Hrithik Roshan began his acting career early. His father, Rakesh Roshan, a well-known actor and director, provided Hrithik the opportunity to act as a child artist. One of these early projects saw him sharing screen time with Rajinikanth. Now, he is in direct competition with the same star.
