Hrithik Roshan to play lord Ram?


If things go as planned, we might see Hrithik Roshan playing Lord Ram in a movie to be made by his father-in-law Sanjay Khan .



That Hrithik exudes a royal charisma is a fact. Ashutosh Gowarikar tapped on that very charisma to extract a superb performance from Hrithik in Jodhaa Akbar . Now, Hrithik’s father-in-law, Sanjay Khan, wants him to play Lord Ram in a movie called ‘The Legend of Rama’.


Khan, who last directed Taj Mahal , has reportedly been working on this project for the last three years. Also in collaboration is the UK-based writer Farrukh Dhondy. The script is being written jointly by Khan and Dhondy. Khan will produce the film.




While Hrithik has been finalized to play the part of lord Ram, Sanjay has chosen his own son Zayed Khan to play Laxman, Ram’s younger brother.


According to Dhondy, both Hrithik and Zayed are perfect for the said parts.


Amitabh Bachchan has been finalized to play the king Dashrath. However, it is not clear whether the superstar has given his consent.


According to Dhondy, ‘The Legend of Rama’ will be made in the same genre as ‘Lord of the Rings’. It will be Ramayana adapted to a modern format.


It will be interesting to see who plays the other pivotal characters of Sita, Hanuman and Ravan.
