Hrithik recently played Rohan Bhatnagar in Kaabil, a disabled guy, and received high praise for his work.

Kaabil was a different experience for me personally. Perhaps more than the accolades and the box office success what will remain with me is an invaluable understanding,” he recalled.

“I didn’t play Rohan Bhatnagar as a disabled guy, I played a guy who believes in himself. My way of seeing them has changed forever,” the actor said.

Be it Rohit of Koi Mil Gaya, Ellen Masceranhas of Guzaarish or Rohan of Kaabil, Hrithik struck the right chord with the audiences every time. Although all three characters were different, a similarity remains–All of them were emotionally intelligent.
