I'll enjoy it: Hrithik on Delhi's Ramlila

Darpan News Desk IANS, 28 Sep, 2014 10:37 AM
    He has never shot at an effigy of Ravana with a bow and arrow, but actor Hrithik Roshan will get an opportunity to do so Oct 3 in the capital.
     
    He is due to attend Dussehra celebrations hosted by the over 50-year-old Luv Kush Ramlila Committee at the Lal Qila Maidan (Red Fort ground) here.
     
    "I will be there. I've never done it (shot the bow and arrow), but I know the history of it. Mazaa aayega (It will be fun) and I am sure I will enjoy it," Hrithik told IANS over phone from Mumbai.
     
    The 40-year-old, whose latest actioner "Bang Bang" releases on Dussehra itself, says he completely believes in the concept of victory of good over evil that the festival of Dussehra celebrates.
     
    Arjun Kumar, secretary of the Luv Kush Ramlila Committee, told IANS: "Hrithik will use a bow and arrow to shoot at the effigy of Ravana. This will happen at 6 p.m. on Oct 3."
     
    The security at the venue will be tight and actors like Govinda, Raveena Tandon and Chandrachur Singh are due to attend the Ramlila celebrations on days ahead of Dussehra.
