I used to play with pens and pencils and assign them superhero status - Hrithik Roshan

Hrithik Roshan went back in time and revisited his childhood days at the launch of the merchandise collection of Krrish 3. Talking about the days when he was just a child, Hrithik said, “I remember the time when I was small and my father used to struggle to earn a living. During those days we weren’t well-off and I used to then spend hours and hours with pens and pencils and assign them superhero status. I then used to make mountains out of blankets and spin my own superhero stories and associate them with the good guy and bad guy. “ Hrithik also said that through the entire merchandise his endeavour has been to give today’s kids something more substantial that what he had. “I hope through these products they would be able to associate themselves with a symbol that stands for good and show them how to choose right from wrong. “ Hrithik himself a proud father of two kids said he loves playing with them whenever he gets any spare time. On being asked if they consider him to be their superhero, Hrithik said, “I would like to believe that my kids see their dad as a super hero because for me my dad was definitely one.” The official Krrish 3 merchandise includes a wide range of products like the action figures of Krrish (character played by Hrithik), Kaal (Vivek Oberoi) and Kaya (Kangana Ranaut).
