Hrithik Roshan gets a surprise thank you note

Hrithik Roshan (still from Kaabil)

Hrithik Roshan, who played the blind character as Rohan Bhatnagar in his recent successful film Kaabil got an unexpected mail from a college student from Ranchi.

The student wrote to Roshan because he's called Rohan Bhatnagar and always hated his name, till Kaabil happened.

The letter reads...

Dear Hrithik,

My name is Rohan Bhatnagar and I am a student from Ranchi. Yes, I am a real Rohan Bhatnagar.

Let me clarify that I am not your fan. I see Hindi movies regularly and so do my family and friends. But this letter, if it ever reaches to you, is to thank you for something that you have unknowingly done for me.

Since childhood I wished that my name was something else and not just a Rohan Bhatnagar. The fact that it’s too commonplace was shared by almost everyone around me except for my parents who could hardly care about this feeling of mine. My special friend who loves me a lot and vice versa also once admitted that my name is boring. My friends usually call me Bhatnagar and I always wished that they stopped doing that.

But since this January things have changed. Whenever my full name is being called there are smiles on people’s faces. And yes my special friend too now seems to like it. It has become something special about me that I am called Rohan Bhatnagar, name of the character that you played in Kaabil.

Everyone around me has loved this character and a part of that love is coming my way too.

Thanks for making my name special.

Thank you!

This letter got Hrithik by surprise. He says, "I am realising the significance of playing Rohan Bhatnagar well after the release of the film. There is so much of love that this character seems to have generated. Every day I discover something more about its effect. I am also glad that people are making an effort and reaching out to me in this manner."

He adds, "As an actor we play a character and we ourselves don't know in what possible ways it will connect with people. I couldn't have thought of something like this. When our work lives amidst people and touches their lives in some manner, it is a matter of great satisfaction for an actor or for that matter for any creative person."
