Filmmaker Rakesh Roshan says he ropes in Hrithik Roshan as a superhero in the "Krrish" franchise because he feels no actor can essay it better than his son.
Asked why he casts Hrithik as a superhero, senior Roshan said: "There's no other actor (other than Hrithik) in Bollywood who can become a superhero. If any other actor suited the role, we would have already seen a film before ours."
"Hrithik looks like a superhero, performs like a superhero," added the proud father, who gave a dreamlike launch to his son with blockbuster "Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai" in 2000.
What about Shah Rukh, who played the lead role in "RA.One"?"Shah Rukh is good," he responded to a query.The senior Roshan also clarified that his comment comes in the capacity of a director and not as a father.
"A father will always say his son is a superhero," he said.
"Krrish 3" releases Nov 1.
