When this look was discussed by the makers it was quite a challenge to imagine the Asia sexiest man as papad seller on the streets. There were multiple look tests to achieve the right look and in fact. The look was finally locked when the team was shooting for the first schedule in Rajasthan. While shooting it happened that we noticed a few actual street hawkers and papad sellers in the location and we were very happy to notice how well Hrithik blended in with them and he looked like he fit right into that world.” Infact this is almost what the real man Anand Kumar experienced. The kind of tension, pain and struggle Anand went through this phase, despite being an IIT passed student, the man used to earn bucks out of selling papad. Hrithik has attempted at bringing the exact same essence and similar kind of tension to the character with his look as can be seen in the pictures.

Capturing all the journey while shooting for papad scene, Hrithik Roshan also expresses, “The location and environment was a difficult one to shoot in not only for me but for the entire crew. And, it was a constant struggle to stay in character and become comfortable with being uncomfortable. The papad selling phase of Anand Kumar’s journey is an important one as it was cathartic and became the genesis of all that he did later on in his life.” The film is all set to hit theaters on 12th July.
