Rakesh on underworld’s gunshot attack post Hrithik’s debut

The year 2000 was a mix of triumph and terror for the Roshan family. On January 14, Rakesh Roshan’s Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai launched Hrithik Roshan into stardom, marking the young actor as Bollywood’s next big thing. However, the celebrations were short-lived as just a week later, Rakesh Roshan was shot in broad daylight outside his Mumbai office. Despite being struck by two bullets, the director managed to drive himself to the hospital, miraculously surviving the attack.
