On Monday night, Hrithik Roshan took to his social media handle to wish filmmaker Ashutosh Gowariker on his birthday. He shared a video from the film Jodhaa Akbar directed by Gowariker and talked about his experience working on the film. The film recently completed 13 years of release.

In the video shared by Hrithik, we can see montages of his scenes from the film along with co-star Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. “Memories . #JodhaaAkbar Man this movie was difficult . I was shit scared when Ashutosh Gowarikar offered it to me . Couldn’t understand how he could see someone like me commanding 10,000 soldiers. But then that’s what a director does . He envisions what you can’t . And that’s the reason I did the film . More than the script or story , it was for experiencing what this impossibility would do to me , how it would change me , make me stronger perhaps,” he wrote along with the video.

“And what I learnt was that to do strong things , you don’t need to be strong in the beginning ! In fact the decision of wanting to be strong comes before . And it MEANS having to choose that which is beyond your ability at the time of choosing. Trusting that the experience itself will do the rest. The challenge then itself creates the stronger you .It’s Magic .Try it .#happybirthdayashutoshgowariker,” he further wrote.
