If there is an actor who has been repeatedly hailed upon as the perfect man from B-Town to make a mark in Hollywood as a hero, it is Hrithik Roshan. Right from his early days, news of the hunk getting meaty Hollywood offers used to pop up from time to time, but Hrithik concentrated solely on Bollywood. . The Jr. Roshan had his downfalls but now is in a position where he has a good fan base outside India and has a credible work profile behind him too.
His next film 'Kites' with its international flavor seems to have been designed in such a way that his popularity penetrates into different parts of the globe. . Now after the way Hollywood film maker Danny Boyle has praised the film star, we can be sure that Indian media never went overboard in praising Hrithik. Danny said "The world is changing, I am sure someday, someone will emerge as the connect between Hollywood and Bollywood.. Someone like Hrithik Roshan. He is bang on! He is such an extraordinary dancer and a good actor. I am sure some day he will be a part of Hollywood". . We also hope so too!

Mumbai:"I would love to do a thriller based in Mumbai," says award-winning director , who's currently in the city. "While making Slumdog Millionaire I was looking at the city closely and saw such a huge potential for a thriller. Mumbai has seen such an explosive growth and with the world of police and gangsters, it makes for a great thriller.
One of the privileges of being a film director is that you get to see the city in the night. Mumbai is not a 24-hour city like New York, so at 3am in the morning, you can see the dogs wandering around..." Boyle, whose Slumdog Millionaire won four Golden Globes, says initially he had huge misconceptions about the country. "I am a colonial person and we still go around thinking we are superior and we used to rule the world -- however long back that was. I used to carry around the baggage of superiority. But it was here that I learnt that things have changed and how." Boyle thinks Hollywood is no longer closed to other film-makers.
"The world is changing. I am sure someday, someone will emerge as the connect between Hollywood and Bollywood...someone like Hrithik Roshan. He is bang on! He is such an extraordinary dancer and a good actor. I am sure some day he will be a part of Hollywood."
