The Roshans took their first break since their honeymoon in 2003 and went to the French Polynesian Island leaving sons Hrehaan, who is two, and Hridhaan, just five months old, with Hrithik’s parents back in Mumbai. “We were away from the whole world. It was fantastic. We did some crazy, wild things which, of course, I can’t share with you,” smiled Hrithik in an exclusive.
He is still chilling out at home. The Kites shoot in Mexico and LA was a long and tiring bit of work. And Hrithik is happy to spend time with the family at last. “I celebrated Diwali at Farhan Akhtar’s house. For the first time I played cards. I lost!” he laughed. Sussanne travels with him most of the time, but it’s still work for Hrithik. That’s why they took a break in Bora Bora. The petite Sussanne is actually the adventurous type, said Hrithik, so there were a lot of adventure sports they indulged in.
They were enjoying themselves on this second honeymoon of sorts when Hrithik learned from Ashutosh Gowarikar that he had won the Best Actor award for Jodhaa-Akbar at the Kazan Film Festival for Muslim Cinema in Russia. “I had not heard about these awards, so I looked up the net,” said the actor, who was thrilled to be bestowed with this honour and happy that Jodhaa-Akbar had won the prestigious Grand Prix award in the same film festival. That apart, things are looking up for Hrithik. The injured knee has healed. “I can walk and do things with ease,” said Hrithik, who was operated on by actress Pooja Batra’s husband Dr Sonu Ahluwalia in the US.
