Krrish wax mask took six months to design
New Delhi: Renowned filmmaker Rakesh Roshan recently revealed the hard work behind the creation of the iconic mask used for his superstar son Hrithik Roshan in the film "Krrish". He told that it took about six months to design this mask as the mask was made of wax and would melt within a few hours, which caused a lot of difficulties during the shooting. To keep the mask properly, Hrithik had to keep it in a 24-hour AC bus.

The mask was made of wax, which would last for three-four hours after wearing, after which it would start melting. So Hrithik had to remove the mask and wear a new one again and again. For this reason, Rakesh arranged an AC bus where the masks were kept cool. Hrithik had to endure a lot of discomfort during this process, which shows his dedication.

Krrish's black outfits were also very heavy, making it even more challenging to play the role. Due to all these hard work, this image of Krrish became memorable in Indian cinema.
The first "Krrish" film was released in 2006, starring Hrithik Roshan along with Priyanka Chopra, Naseeruddin Shah, Rekha, Sharat Saxena and Manini Mishra. The film was a sequel to "Koi... Mil Gaya" and was the beginning of the superhero franchise. The third installment came in 2013, while "Krrish 4" will be released in April 2025.
