Not Approached For 'Comedy Nights Bachao': Hrithik Roshan

  • Not Approached For 'Comedy Nights Bachao': Hrithik Roshan
Actor Hrithik Roshan is on a promotion spree as his next film "Mohenjo Daro" is set to hit the screens later this month. But contrary to rumours, he said "Comedy Nights Bachao" was never on the list for promoting the epic adventure-romance film.
 
According to reports, Hrithik was asked to promote his film on "Comedy Nights Bachao", but the actor declined the offer.
 
"That's a rumour. 'Comedy Nights Bachao' was never on the list. I was not approached for it. There was a need to do two shows and they were both decided by the PR team, and not by Pooja (Hegde) or me. We were just taken (to the shows' sets)," Hrithik, who was here to promote the Ashutosh Gowariker directorial, told IANS.
 
The co-stars did make an appearance on "The Kapil Sharma Show".
 
How was it shooting with popular comedian Kapil Sharma?
 
"He is amazing. We had a great time. That show is dedicated to... after Pooja to Ashutosh because you will see a different side of him that no one has ever seen. He was behaving like a girl and all," he said.
 
Pooja, who is making her Bollywood acting debut with the film, shared that she was "shocked" to see that side of Gowariker.
 
"You have seen him as a very serious man and now you will see his other side," she said.
 
The duo also had a good time on filmmaker-choreographer Remo D'souza's dance show "Dance +".
 
"Mohenjo Daro" will hit the screens on August 12.
