"Media helped me become the human and actor that I am," says Hrithik Roshan on completing 25 years in the industry —

Hrithik Roshan thanks media:

Bollywood superstar Hrithik Roshan is about to complete 25 years in the Bollywood industry. His first film, Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai, was released on January 10, 2000. On Friday, he will officially mark 25 years in Bollywood, and to celebrate this special occasion, he hosted an intimate bash for media friends on Tuesday evening.

During the event, he said, "25 years have passed, and unfortunately, that side of me has not changed. I’m still shy. This is really an excuse and an opportunity for me to express to all of you what I have probably never said in 25 years. I truly believe that you (media people) have helped me, all of you, to become the human and the actor that I am in these 25 years through our interactions. Through all the questions and answers, you made me feel uncomfortable. I grew up with that. Sometimes you made me feel responsible; sometimes you made me feel accountable. Guys, that’s not good for a shy guy."

Hrithik got candid while recalling the day before Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai's release and shared, "25 years! I remember 25 years ago when Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai was releasing; I was so shy and anxious that I didn’t do a single interview. I didn’t step out of my house to do anything. I just skipped the entire promotional event."
