The illustrations don’t just offer a visual treat - they chart the many avatars Hrithik Roshan has embodied through his cinematic journey. From the fresh-faced Rohit of Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai to the enigmatic Kabir of War, each artwork pays homage to the actor’s dedication to transformation. Known for reinventing his look and body language with every role, Hrithik has never repeated a persona.
