At present, the film that has captivated audiences is undoubtedly Krrish 4. The much-anticipated return of Hrithik Roshan as the iconic superhero has been in the making for nearly a decade, with little indication of progress. However, last year, Rakesh Roshan confirmed that the franchise is indeed advancing, putting an end to extensive speculation and numerous rumors. This announcement generated significant buzz in mainstream media, and fans have been eagerly awaiting further updates since then.

Recent reports have indicated a significant reshuffling within the film's directorial team and production staff, with claims that the budget has soared to ₹700 crore. Nevertheless, a new report has refuted these budget allegations. Here is what you need to know.

Krrish 4 Budget Allegations Refuted

Rakesh Roshan has been on the lookout for a director for Krrish 4 for an extended period. Initially, filmmakers Karan Malhotra and Siddharth Anand were linked to the project, but recent reports confirm that both have now stepped away, leaving the film without a director.

Additionally, there were rumors suggesting that the film's budget was an astonishing ₹700 crore, raising questions about its viability. However, Movie Talkies has now dismissed this assertion. A source close to the project has clarified that the reports regarding the ₹700 crore budget are completely unfounded.

While there is no official announcement regarding the commencement of Krrish 4 or any developments occurring behind the scenes, it is clear that Hrithik Roshan is currently prioritizing his work on War 2.

For those unfamiliar, Krrish 4 has been in the works for an extended period, yet there have been no definitive updates regarding its development.

Additionally, there have been speculations about the possible return of Jadoo, the beloved alien from Koi... Mil Gaya, but no official confirmation has been provided.

Recently, Rakesh Roshan has addressed the delays, offering insights into the obstacles hindering the film's production.

In an interview with Movie Talkies, Roshan—who is currently enjoying the success of The Roshans, a documentary highlighting his family's legacy—discussed the primary factor contributing to the delay of Krrish 4. He affirmed that the project is still very much in progress, but budgetary limitations pose a significant challenge. Nevertheless, he is committed to expediting the project to ensure it meets his vision of a grand cinematic experience.

Reducing the budget would compromise the storyline, which I am unwilling to accept. I will not make any compromises. I aim to secure the appropriate budget and scale before we commence production."

With Roshan's commitment to maintaining the film’s scale and quality, fans can remain hopeful that Krrish 4 will eventually materialize into a grand cinematic experience.
