Murtuza Iqbal

Earlier this year, Hrithik Roshan was signed by the US-based Gersh Agency to manage his work internationally. There were reports that Hrithik is keen to make his Hollywood debut.


Now, today, according to a report in Mid-day, the actor has auditioned to play the role of a spy in a Hollywood action thriller. It is said that he will be seen playing a parallel lead in the film which is backed by a reputed production house. However, the details are kept under wraps.

A source told the tabloid, "As is customary in Los Angeles, Hrithik's team was given details of his role in the movie and the scenes that he had to tape. He sent his audition to the studio two weeks ago. The discussion is at a nascent stage. If all goes well, the actor will kick off the project after completing the shoot of Krrish 4.”

When the tabloid contacted the actor’s team, his spokesperson said, "We have no information about this."

Well, Hrithik currently has only Krrish 4 lined-up, and it is not yet confirmed when that film will start rolling. Rakesh Roshan and Hrithik have just confirmed that the film will happen and the character of Jaadu might make a comeback in Krrish 4.

There were reports of him starring in the Indian adaptation of the popular British television series The Night Manager (2016). However, there’s no official announcement about it yet.

It was also said that Hrithik was approached for Satte Pe Satta remake and The Burning Train remake. But the actor declined the offers because he is not keen on doing remakes.

Sri Lanka drug arrest of British woman sparks investigation into links with the Culley case

A 21-year-old British woman has been arrested in Sri Lanka for allegedly attempting to smuggle synthetic cannabis worth £1.2 million into the country, amid growing concerns of young travellers being targeted by organised drug trafficking networks.

Charlotte May Lee, from south London, was detained last Monday after arriving at Bandaranaike International Airport in Colombo. Sri Lankan customs officials allege she was found carrying large vacuum-packed bags of a synthetic cannabis strain known as kush in her luggage. Lee had flown to Sri Lanka from Bangkok, Thailand, echoing the travel route of another British national, 18-year-old Bella May Culley, who was arrested just one day earlier in Georgia on similar charges.
