Hrithik Roshan teases appearance in ‘Brahmastra’ sequel; says he is keeping ‘fingers crossed’ – Times of India

Post the release of ‘Brahmastra’, there has been speculation about Hrithik playing Dev, a character that was established but not seen in the first instalment.

The 48-year-old actor is also rumoured to be a part of Nitesh Tiwari’s ambitious film ‘Ramayana’.

When quizzed about the two projects, Hrithik said, “What is happening? Nothing is happening. Next ‘Fighter’ will start and then there is potential for others to be made, (including) the ones you spoke of. Fingers crossed.”

The actor will next reunite with his ‘War’ director Siddharth Anand for ‘Fighter’, billed as India’s first aerial action franchise also starring Deepika Padukone and Anil Kapoor.

Meanwhile, Hrithik is awaiting the release of ‘Vikram Vedha’, a remake of the 2017 Tamil blockbuster of the same name which starred R Madhavan and Vijay Sethupathi.

The neo-noir action crime thriller, based on the Indian folktale ‘Vikram aur Betaal’, tells the story of a tough police officer Vikram (Saif), who sets out to track down and kill an equally tough gangster (Hrithik).

‘Vikram Vedha’ is directed by Pushkar and Gayatri, who also helmed the original film. The movie is set to be released on September 30.
