Priyanka Chopra Jonas is reportedly set to return to Indian cinemas, starring alongside Hrithik Roshan in the much-awaited film Krrish 4.
The 42-year-old actress, who garnered recognition for her role in the action/sci-fi project, is set to reprise her character, Priya, in the highly-anticipated sequel.
According to Pinkvilla, a source close to the development shared, “Hrithik, and Priyanka are a successful pair and have an excellent work relationship. It was more of a no-brainer for PC to come on board Krrish 4, as the story continues the journey of characters from Koi Mil Gaya to Krrish, Krrish 3, and now the fourth installment. The actress was bowled over by the vision of Hrithik Roshan to take the franchise forward, and was ecstatic to see him take over the challenges of directing the film.”
The source added, “There are some projects which are designed keeping VFX in mind, but Krrish 4 is a film where the inception of VFX stems from the story, which is magical. Pun intended.”
Hrithik, 51, who will reprise his role as Krrish in the film, has also geared up to direct the fourth installment of the project.
However, the first three parts of Krrish were directed by Rakesh Roshan.
During an exclusive conversation with Pinkvilla, the Indian filmmaker spoke about his son taking the director’s chair for the upcoming sequel.
Speaking exclusively, he said, “I am passing the baton of the director of Krrish 4 to my son, Hrithik Roshan, who has lived, breathed, and dreamt, about this franchise since its inception with me. Hrithik has a clear and a very ambitious vision of taking Krrish’s journey forward with the audience for the next decades.”
The Love Again star, who has been married to Nick Jonas since 2018, was last seen in Ramin Bahrani’s film The White Tiger in 2021.
For the unversed, Krrish 4, produced by Aditya Chopra, is expected to release in 2026.
