Pyaar Hai directed by his father, Rakesh Roshan was a huge hit at the box office and Hrithik was definitely a new star in the making.

I had to do everything whether it was to call Salman (Khan), the biggest star then, who did not know me at all. He has worked with me, I was an assistant (Karan Arjun) but I just asked myself, 'Who's the best in the business?' It was Salman. I have to try this. I have to try and ask him, 'what did you do?'" Salman Khan Flaunts His Fit Bod in a Shirtless Post Workout Picture and Fans Can't Stop Raving About It!
