Krrish 4: Hrithik Roshan’s much-anticipated film Krrish 4 is facing delays due to its massive Rs 700 crore budget. Despite years of speculation and planning, the film’s production has been slow, primarily because no studio is ready to commit such a large investment due to the risks involved. Reports suggest that Siddharth Anand and Karan Malhotra, who were initially involved in the project, have now stepped away. However, Rakesh Roshan has assured fans that the film’s official announcement will be made soon.

Challenges with Production Partners

Initially, Hrithik Roshan had brought Siddharth Anand on board as a production partner due to their past successful collaborations. However, the overwhelming success of Marvel films has made studios hesitant to invest in a high-budget Indian superhero movie. Industry sources revealed that despite the need for a big budget, studios were unwilling to commit to such a financial risk, leading to further complications in the project.

Why Siddharth Anand and Karan Malhotra Left

Reports confirm that Siddharth Anand’s production house, Marflix Films, and director Karan Malhotra have exited the project. Hrithik and Rakesh Roshan are now negotiating with other studios across India to secure a new production deal. A new team is expected to take over soon to review the budget and script before restarting production.

Future of ‘Krrish 4′

Contrary to initial reports, the Rs 700 crore budget may not be necessary for Krrish 4. According to Movie Talkies, alternative budget plans are being explored. Meanwhile, Rakesh Roshan has clarified that he has officially retired from directing but remains involved in the project. He reassured fans in an interview with Bollywood Hungama that Krrish 4 is still in the works and an official announcement will be made soon.
