Director Bobby Kolli in Talks with Hrithik Roshan for His Hindi Directorial Debut

Fresh off the success of Daaku Maharaaj, director Bobby Kolli is reportedly setting his sights on Bollywood for his Hindi film debut—and none other than Hrithik Roshan might be headlining the project.
According to a report by Gulte, Bobby recently had a meeting with Hrithik and pitched the storyline for his potential debut film. Sources suggest that the War actor was impressed with the narrative, though the project is still in the early stages of development. Talks are ongoing, and further confirmation is awaited.
The buzz doesn’t stop there—Mythri Movie Makers, one of the most prominent production houses in South Indian cinema, is rumored to be backing the film, making this an exciting pan-India collaboration in the making.
Bobby Kolli’s Rise
Bobby Kolli (also known as KS Ravindra) made headlines with his recent hit Daaku Maharaaj, an intense action thriller starring Nandamuri Balakrishna. The film revolved around an IES officer who, while attempting to solve a village’s water crisis, finds himself clashing with a brutal, power-hungry family that controls the region. The protagonist transforms into a vigilante, standing up for justice and protecting the villagers.
Despite receiving mixed reviews from critics, the film became a box office success and is now streaming on Netflix, gaining wider reach across audiences.
Hrithik Roshan’s Upcoming Projects
Meanwhile, Hrithik Roshan is all set for a massive 2025 with the highly anticipated War 2, directed by Ayan Mukerji. The action-packed sequel will see Jr NTR join the YRF Spy Universe as the primary antagonist, marking his Hindi film debut. Kiara Advani plays the female lead. The film is slated for a grand release on August 14, 2025, aligning with Independence Day and clashing with Rajinikanth’s Coolie.
Adding to the excitement, Hrithik is also gearing up to direct and star in Krrish 4, marking his directorial debut in the beloved superhero franchise.
If the collaboration with Bobby Kolli materializes, it could be another dynamic addition to Hrithik’s action-packed lineup—and a strong Bollywood launch for the South filmmaker.
