arsh, of Hrithik's 7 flops both KNPH and K3G were hits.

In the UK at the moment MDK is a actually a HIT (it is currently no 7 in the UK top ten. Even though some people may hate these types of films they are very popular with the masses.

So far performance-wise I'd say Mission Kashmir and Fiza was his best performances. Come to think of it there's not many people in the industry who can play terrorists and do a good jobof it. I can't even imagine Shah Rukh Khan in such a role. Even if Aamir tried he he won't be taken serously. Remember Sanjay dutt playing a villan in Khalnayak? that was one of the most stupidest villans I've ever seen!
I think hrithik would do a good job playing a negative character, but I don't think that'll rake in the money as many of his female fans would refuse to see it. He could even make a good Indian James Bond-type character.

Hi! khiladi, I dont deny, Hrithik's talent!
I dont deny, KNPH..Hit!
I dont DENY K3G hit, but? multistarre mush???etc etc!

As far UK!! Hit!! I dont AGREE with CREDIBILITY of UK box office status of any film, as lately, I have seen, that kinda shitty crap declared hit in UK, that would put every body to shame..so, MDK is UK hit!! It does not COUNT imho!

Finally, MK/Fiza were his best films, yes! I agree, repeatedly said that too!

Lastly, This guy, has a PERFECT blend to be a GOOD HERO! and has some talents, that very many lack! But!! has not been used in proper sense! He has a perfect EDGE over, most new comers! But his SO CALLED super star fame, had been killing his prospects!EXPECTATIONS are SKY HIGH from his film, because of his STAR POWER!

Mostly, all of his films, had been a LET DOWN, for his fans!! Just for REPEATING same crap over and over again! Who wants, to see that Sissy mush over and over again! lol! :baaa: :stupid: :angry:

I disagree with your point. At the same time, I do second the fact that Mission Kashmir & Fiza are by far Hrithik Roshan's best performances to date, however, had either Aamir Khan or Shah Rukh Khan done the same roles, I feel that they would have exceled much more, not only because there far more experienced, but they have a good director working behind them(btw, did you know that SRK was first offered the role in M:K to play Altaaf first, before Akshay Khanna & Hrithik Roshan were offered)

DVD collector,

I really can't imagine SRK in those roles. I know he is far more experienced, but he is looking alot older now and to play Sanjay Dutt's adopted son wouldn't look right. And I don't think the audience would've taken too well if he had chosen the role.
And Aamir Khan is without a doubt a great actor, probably the best at the moment, but he's so tiny how can he play a tough terrorist like Altaaf? He can get away with playing an inspector in Sarfarosh, but can't imagine him as a terrorist. Hrithik sometimes looks like a bigger version of Aamir.

I should also let you know that Amitabh Bachchan & Shah Rukh Khan were the very first people Vidhu Vinod Chopra approached for the pivotal roles in Mission Kashmir, it's self-explanatory on what roles they would have portrayed. So, from that point of view, they both would have had an equivalent image on there characters as to how Sanjay Dutt & Hrithik Roshan have portrayed them in reality.

And it was only because of Yash Chopra that they weren't able to do the film. Mohabbatein's contract had a clause that it would be the first film where AB and SRK would be seen together. So SRK and AB had to chose between the 2 films and because of their prior associations with YRF, went with Mohabbatein. VVC in an act of spite released MK on the same day as Mohabbatein.

Yep! Interesting MALFUNXION!
I read a SIMILLAR clause that WENT OUT with DTPH that SRK/MADS/KARISMA will never appear together again???

Two people have told me about two different pirates - so they are out there! Apparently both pretty poor quality.
