Bad Times Hound The Roshans

It’s not been an easy phase  for the Roshan  family starting with  daughter Sunaina’s broken marriage and then her fight with cancer, then son Hrithik Roshan’s ostensibly rocksteady marriage with Sussanne Khan fell apart, shocking all   of the couple’s friends. Soon after,Hrithik got into an open ugly war with Kangana Ranaut in what looked a relationship gone horribly wrong.

And now  comes  the  news  of  Rakesh Roshan’s health scare.

Says a friend, “Uss parivar  ko kissiki nazar lag gayi. They are so health conscious, so  into  everything wholesome and natural.  It’s been one setback after another for  the Roshans. They may not show it . But Rakesh and  (wife) Pinky were very upset when  Sussanne quit the marriage with Hrithik. Then when Kangana  launched an  all-guns-blazing attack on Hrithik’s personal  life it  was  a real low-blow as far as his father was  concerned.”

Rakesh Roshan  always a strong and  healthy man  has shaken all his friends with his health setback.

A  very close  friend reveals, “Rakeshji has always been  as strong as  a bull. At  69 he goes  to  the  gym  every day ,eats  only the  most healthy  food. First his  best friend Rishi Kapoorand now Rakesh Roshan, why the streak of health setbacks in Bollywood?”

Hrithik’s career  too seems to  be suffering  some low  blows. His  ambitious  bio-pic  Super 30 became  embroiled  in an unsavoury controversy when the  film’s  director  Vikas Bahlwas accused  of sexual harassment. Ironically Hrithik himself claims to be  a victim of this crime.

Amidst the darkness that has temporarily enveloped  the Roshans’ lives  a friend offers  a rayof hope. “I think Sussanne  should  return to Hrithik’s life. Her departure has  brought on  this  lean streak in  the Roshans’ lives.”
