Handsome is as handsome does: Hrithik Roshan

A  global online survey on the portal worldstopmost.com has elected our own Hrithik Roshan as the  third most handsome face in the world, next to Tom Cruise and Robert Pattinson. In an interview with Subhash K Jha, the Kaabil star-actor reacts to the honour.

What does it feel like to be chosen the  third most handsome man in the world next only to Tom Cruise and Robert Pattinsen?
Well handsome is as handsome does . I am honored of course . I told my sons to  remember to always thank people for compliments . This is a compliment, not an achievement.

Flattered?

Good looks should never become a part of your internal character. To not care about how you look will make you look even more attractive.

It is an incredible honour for our entertainment industry …do you agree?
To be counted in the worlds top 10 of anything I guess gets eyeballs , so in that regard yes. It’s good.

How do you react to compliments about your looks?
I react to them  like one should react to  a compliment (smiles) I smile and say thank you. Neither do I reject it, nor revel in it.

Incredibly you have beaten the myth that good looking people can’t act your comments?
Every single good actor has broken that myth. Mr Dilip Kumar , Mr Amitabh Bachchan, Marlon Brando and Brad Pitt are lookers and shakers. Being attractive in life is not something as static as a single frame in a picture.

What according to you is the hallmark of handsomeness?

What makes you good looking is how you are expressing yourself and that comes from how you are interpreting life.

With your international looks why are you not doing films in Hollywood?

 I haven’t liked anything yet . It’s not about Hollywood  , it’s always about a good script for me !
