Krrish (Hindi pronunciation:[krɪʃ]) is a 2006 Indian Hindi-language superhero film directed and produced by Rakesh Roshan. The film stars Hrithik Roshan in a dual role as father and son, with Priyanka Chopra, Naseeruddin Shah, Rekha, Sharat Saxena and Manini Mishra feature in supporting roles. A sequel to Koi... Mil Gaya (2003), it is the second installment in the Krrish franchise, and relates the story of Krishna (Roshan), the son of the previous film's protagonist, who inherits his father's superhuman abilities. After falling in love with Priya (Chopra), he follows her to Singapore, where he takes on the persona of "Krrish" to keep his identity secret while saving children from a burning circus. From that moment on, he is regarded as a superhero, and must later thwart the plans of the evil Dr. Siddhant Arya (Shah), who has a connection to Krishna's father, Rohit.
Krrish was conceived to be a film of global significance and a trendsetter in Indian cinema, with visual effects on par with those from Hollywood. To that end, the effects team was aided by Hollywood's Marc Kolbe and Craig Mumma, and the stunts were choreographed by Chinese martial arts film expert Tony Ching. The music was composed by Rajesh Roshan, with the background score by Salim–Sulaiman. Filming was done to a large extent in Singapore as well as India.
Krrish released worldwide on 23 June 2006 at a budget of ₹40 crore and on 1000 prints,[3] both near-record amounts for an Indian film at the time. Krrish received positive reviews from critics in India, got a record opening week at the box office. A blockbuster, Krrish grossed a worldwide total of ₹126 crore,[4] becoming the second highest-grossing Indian film of 2006.
Krrish received 8 nominations at the 52nd Filmfare Awards, including Best Film, Best Director (Rakesh), Best Actor (Hrithik) and Best Supporting Actress (Rekha), and won 3 awards, including Best Special Effects. At the 8th IIFA Awards, the film received 9 nominations, and won 3 awards, including Best Actor (Hrithik). It also won the National Film Award for Best Special Effects.
