Salman Khan has been in the news as the Mumbai police is extensively investigating the case of gun shots being fired outside the actor’s Bandra residence. Years ago, actor and filmmaker Rakesh Roshan was also involved in a similar firing incident.
Soon after he launched son Hrithik Roshan with ‘Kaho Naa…Pyaar Hai’ on June 14, 2000, Rakesh Roshan was reportedly targeted by two members of the Budesh gang.According to IANS, on the evening of January 21, 2000, Rakesh Roshan was attacked by two unidentified assailants near his office on Tilak Road in Santacruz West, Mumbai. He was shot in the left arm and grazed on the chest by two bullets fired at him. The assailants quickly fled the scene and the filmmaker was hospitalised for treatment.
Hrithik later recalled the phone call from his father after the incident. The actor had told BBC in an interview, “I was training in the gym at the time, he called me up and he says, ‘where are you?’ He sounded scared. He told me not to move, and then he said ‘I got shot, I don’t know how it happened. Two guys came and shot at me, and now am going to the cops.’ I thought he should be going to the hospital. But he was so angry, he didn’t want to let those guys get away. So he drove to the police station and those guys took him to the hospital and he collapsed there. The bullet grazed the wall of his heart and stopped right next to his sternum, it got lodged there. I had not even begun to enjoy the success of my film and this happens. I was waiting for trade papers to say KNPH was a hit. And we got to the Friday, and I was going to have a party, but before that dad got shot. He had a bullet in his chest and his arm; I remember he called me up because he was concerned whether I was okay. In his mind he was wondering if there was a simultaneous act (on the family).”
Post this traumatic incident, Hrithik expressed that he had considered giving up on films. After returning home, his family convinced him otherwise and he realized that quitting would mean that they had won.
