Rakesh expressed his blessings, confidence, and endless fatherly pride for Hrithik’s new role.
Soon after the announcement, fans and celebrities started flooding the comments with love and good wishes. Priyanka Chopra also reacted with heart emojis, which caught the attention of fans. Some fans quickly asked her if she was returning as Priya Mehra, while others urged her to come back to the beloved superhero franchise.
