Krrish is a 2006 Indian Hindi-language superhero film, directed and produced by Rakesh Roshan. The film stars Hrithik Roshan in a dual role of father and son, while Priyanka Chopra, Naseeruddin Shah, Rekha, Sharat Saxena and Manini Mishra appear 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 has inherited his father's superhuman abilities. After falling in love with Priya (Chopra), he follows her to Singapore, where he takes on the form of "Krrish" to keep his identity a secret while rescuing 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 ties to Krishna's father, Rohit. Krrish was conceived as a film of global significance and a trendsetter in Indian cinema, with visual effects on par with Hollywood. To that end, the effects team was assisted by Hollywood's Marc Kolbe and Craig Mumma, and the stunts were choreographed by Chinese martial arts film specialist Tony Ching. The music was composed by Rajesh Roshan, with the background score by Salim–Sulaiman. Filming was largely done in Singapore as well as India. Krrish was released worldwide on 23 June 2006 on a budget of ₹40 crore and 1000 prints, which was a near-record amount for an Indian film at the time. Krrish received positive reviews from critics in India, with a record opening week at the box office. A blockbuster, Krrish grossed a total of ₹126 crore worldwide,[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.
