Is Hrithik Roshan a part of KGF 3? Makers answer

While KGF 3 has been confirmed by the makers, rumours are rife that Hrithik Roshan has been approached for the film. Yash-starrer KGF: Chapter 2 has gone on to become a blockbuster success.

Yash-starrer KGF: Chapter 2 has been a mammoth success globally. The film managed to mint a whopping Rs 1230 crore in 46 days of run time. Yash as Rocky Bhai is an ultimate fan favourite. With the film still running successfully in the theatres, fans are already wondering if there will come a KGF 3. While KGF makers have confirmed the third part, rumours have been rife that Hrithik Roshan has been approached for the film. With ‘true or false’ being the ultimate question, KGF makers have now shared an update on whether the casting for KGF 3 has been finalised.

KGF: Chapter 2 is still running successfully in theatres when the makers confirmed the third franchise of the film. In fact, rumours have been rife that Hrithik Roshan has been approached to play a part in the film. KGF's production house, Hombale Films’ co-founder Vijay Kiragandur, in an interview with Asianet Newsable, cleared the air around Hrithik’s casting. He said, “KGF: Chapter 3 will not happen this year. We have some plans, but Prashanth (Neel) is busy with Salaar at the moment while Yash will be announcing his new movie soon. Therefore, we need them to come together at the right time when they are free to begin work on KGF 3. As of now, we don’t have a fixed date or time as to when the work on the third instalment will start.”

Further adding, “Once we have finalised the dates, we will be in a better position to zero down on the star cast. And when the process to cast other actors begins, it will also hugely depend upon their availability at that time. Everything depends on when the work on the third instalment begins.”

KGF: Chapter 2 is written and directed by Prashanth Neel. The film is produced on a massive scale by Vijay Kiragandur of Hombale Films. The film starred Yash, Sanjay Dutt, Raveena Tandon and Srinidhi Shetty in lead roles. Composer Ravi Basrur, cinematographer Bhuvan Gowda and editor Ujwal Kulkarni are part of the technical crew.
