Mumbai, February 20 – Hrithik Roshan has praised Shahid Kapoor, calling him the "best" at portraying quirky characters. The Bollywood star also shared that he thoroughly enjoyed "O Romeo" and found him to be "too good".
On X (formerly Twitter), Hrithik shared that he had a great time watching the film and praised Shahid's effortless mastery of the genre.
Hrithik wrote: "The quirkiness of #ORomeo eventually wins you over. I had fun. @shahidkapoor, you do this genre BEST. You are too good. Go watch it in the theaters guys. Also, the running in circles action was brilliant."
Filmmaker Vishal Bhardwaj directed Romeo. Based on the book "Mafia Queens of Mumbai" by Hussain Zaidi, the film also stars Triptii Dimri, Nana Patekar, Avinash Tiwary, Tamannaah Bhatia, Disha Patani, Farida Jalal, and Vikrant Massey.
It tells the story of Ustara, a deadly contract killer working for the Intelligence Bureau, who agrees to help Afsha avenge her husband's murder, leading them on a dangerous journey from Mumbai to Spain.
Hrithik was last seen in "War 2," an action-thriller film directed by Ayan Mukerji. It is the sixth installment in the YRF Spy Universe and a sequel to the 2019 film "War." The film stars Hrithik Roshan, N.T.R Jr., and Kiara Advani in the lead roles, along with Ashutosh Rana and Anil Kapoor in supporting roles.
It follows Kabir Dhaliwal, a former RAW agent who goes rogue and becomes a major threat to national security, and Vikram Chelapathi, a special unit officer assigned to neutralize him.
Hrithik recently wrote a profound and reflective note, drawing inspiration from American poet and environmentalist Wendell Berry, and spoke about change, freedom, and self-realization.
The actor shared a series of images of himself surrounded by nature on X (formerly Twitter), including snow-capped mountains, a serene lake, and a clear blue sky. He posted a poetic note expressing an awakening to self and nature.
