Krrish 2 sequel to roll in October
MUMBAI: After days of speculation, it has now been confirmed that Krrish 2 will go on the floors in October this year.
The film, starring Hrithik Roshan and Priyanka Chopra in the lead, will also have Viviek Oberoi and Chitrangada Singh.
Roshan, who will reportedly be portraying three different characters in the film for the first time in his career, says that the film would be loaded with Hollywood-quality visual effects.
“We’re just waiting for the storyboard to be completed because when you make a film with special effects, you have to have all your frames sketched and approved on paper. Only then can they be executed inside the studio. Once that happens, the Krrish sequel will roll in October; wrap up in March and probably release next monsoon,” the actor said.
The actor, who is currently judging a reality show Just Dance for Star Plus, is soon expected to join technicians flown in from the West.
