Krrish 4, one of Bollywood’s much-discussed projects, is once again in the news. For the past few months, there were reports of differences between Hrithik Roshan and Yash Raj Films (YRF) regarding the film’s budget and production. Some reports claimed that Hrithik wanted a budget of around ₹500 crore for his directorial debut film Krrish 4, while Aditya Chopra wanted to keep it within ₹350 crore. Now, filmmaker Rakesh Roshan has reacted to these speculations. He stated that reports of Hrithik demanding ₹500 crore are completely false. ‘Such talks are completely nonsense’: Rakesh Roshan In an interview given to Mid-Day, Rakesh Roshan said that it is wrong to say that Hrithik demanded a budget of ₹500 crore for the film.

Sufficient time was also taken to prepare every film of the ‘Krrish’ franchise. ‘Film is not stalled, we are waiting for the right time’ Rakesh Roshan clarified that the film is not stuck due to any dispute or disagreement. He said that work on ‘Krrish 4’ is ongoing and there is no problem with the film. According to him, Hrithik is currently busy with his other professional commitments and production house work.
