Krrish 3 is an upcoming Bollywood superhero science fiction film.
The film will be produced and directed by Rakesh Roshan. The
film will continue the story of Rohit Mehra and his superhero son
Krrish, after Koi... Mil Gaya and Krrish, this being the third film
of the Krrish film series. Both the earlier films have received blockbuster
status at the box office. The film will be released during Diwali 2013
along with its 3D format.
Following the success of Krrish, director Rakesh Roshan planned to develop
a sequel for the film with Hrithik Roshan playing the protagonist again. He
had penned the script, but had to re-work it as the storyline was too similar
to the Hollywood blockbuster Spider-Man 3. Priyanka Chopra was later confirmed
to reprise the role of Priya. In this film, she will be seen married to Krishna Mehra.
Next, Chitrangada Singh announced her inclusion in the project as a mutant.
Singh was later replaced by Jacqueline Fernandez, who Roshan said would make the
best Super Woman but sadly later on she also backed out of the film. It
was reported that actresses Nargis Fakhri and Esha Gupta were to replace Fernandez.
Kangna Ranaut has finally been confirmed to play the role.Rakesh Roshan
had earlier revealed to media that the main antagonist of film would be as powerful
as the hero. After talks with Ajay Devgn and Shah Rukh Khan fell through, Vivek
Oberoi was eventually cast for the coveted role.
In January 2011, Lakshmi Manchu claimed to have been offered a role in the film as
the antagonist's girlfriend. The film has already started making profits. Its
overseas distribution rights were sold to Eros International while Rakesh Roshan
retained rights in Mumbai. There was also initial speculation that Rekha would
play a major role in the film, which was later denied as a rumour.
