Congratulations, the announcement that Hrithik is directing the fourth chapter of Krissh has taken the  internet by storm?

Has it? I am glad to hear that. It has been  a while since the last Krissh film came,I think ten years. The  fans of  the franchise were  getting restless. We had to take  a call.

Was the decision to pass on the baton due to your health?

Not at all. I am fine.  It’s just that I feel with time, the  Franchise can grow only if it evolves. And for it to evolve  it has to pass on to a younger hand. Hrithik  has been with Krissh  from  the  beginning.Before that he has assisted me in  my directorials. I feel he is equipped to take Krissh forward.

Does this mean  you are retiring from  direction?

Nothing like that. I would return to  direction if I find something  that interests me. Nothing is final. Except that I won’t be  directing Krissh 4, my son will.

What  would Krissh 4  be like?

There are no details right now. As  soon as we have a clearer picture, I will call you.
