Rakesh Roshan On Hrithik Roshan’s Speech Issues
Earlier this year, Hrthik Roshan’s father, Rakesh Roshan opened up about the actor’s speech issues. He told ANI, “He has locked himself inside the bathroom. To learn those two sentences by heart, to say thank you, Dubai. So I used to feel bad, that he is such a progressive man, but something is holding him back. He worked so hard on it.
