Bollywood Movie Preview - Krrish

Whatever happened to the once super popular Hrithik Roshan??? He seems to be having a little tough time gaining popularity in Bollywood as he can't seem to find many roles... except for the ones his dad Rakesh Roshan stars him in... must be nice. To think, it could have happened to me!!! Can't you just imagine!!! Anyways, back to reality, as I guess I'm destined for more important things.
Krrish is the latest movie starring Hrithik Roshan, and comes to us over two years after his last release... This may be OK if you were a Hollywood actor... but in Bollywood, with all the films they churn out... if you're not in at least two movies a year... then somethings definately up, but its NOT your popularity! But anyhow, lets get back to the movie.
Continuing on Rakesh Roshan's obsession with establishing Sci-Fi as a popular Bollywood genre, Krrish is the sequel to Koi Mil Gaya, which was a sci-fi box office hit a couple years back. The basic synopsis is that Hrithik has super natural powers, one of which is the ability to make hot Indian girls fall in love with him...(j/k), which is how he meets Priyanka Chopra. He later travels to Singapore with her and encounters an eveil villain, Naseeruddin Shah, who is plotting his very own global domination strategy (how original). And the rest, I'm sure is pretty obvious.
So, I guess the stage is set for a desi-fied mix of the Matrix and Spiderman/Superman. It should be quite interesting for the American audience, as I don't yet recall a Hollywood 'super-hero' movie in which the star was involved in singing and dancing sequences as well! But this shouldn't take away from the action this movie should have to offer as they've utilized one of the greatest stunt developers film-making has to offer in Tony Ching.
Anyhow, I think this film should be worth a trip to the cinema, given all the action it promises to deliver... some of which I'm hoping will come from Priyanka, and not Hrithik!
