Ashutosh Gowariker, who is all set to team up with Hrithik Roshan again in his next project ‘Mohenjo Daro’ says the superstar took three years to say yes for the period drama.
‘Mohenjo Daro’ a love story set during the Indus Valley civilization, is jointly produced by Disney and Gowariker, who is also directing the film, media reported.
According to media reports ‘Lagaan’ director said, “It’s an individual choice, interest and ability to stay interested and keep pursuing. For me, ‘Lagaan’ would have never happened without Aamir Khan similarly without Hrithik Roshan I could have never made ‘Jodha Akbar’. Mohan Bhargav ‘Swades’ would have never been possible without Shahrukh Khan. The same was true for Abhishek as Surya Sen in ‘Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey’. So, for me it was natural that I waited three years for Hrithik to find time”.
With the film, Gowariker is launching a new face, Pooja Hegde, as the female lead. The director Gowariker has launched actresses like Gracy Singh and Gayatri Joshi through his films. The character needed a new, fresh face and that’s why Pooja Hegde came in.
‘Mohenjo Daro’ is scheduled to go on floors in November this year.
