The wax mask, which kept Krrish’s identity a secret, proved to be a major challenge during the shoot. Since the material would melt, they have to keep it in an AC bus.
Revealing that an air-conditioned bus was on the set for 24 hours, the veteran actor said, "Hrithik used to wear the mask for three to four hours. The wax would melt. He had to remove it and put in a new one. So I had an air-conditioned bus with the AC on for 24 hours.”
He also revealed that Hrithik’s long black overcoat, part of the superhero costume, was extremely heavy.
More about the Krrish franchise, and when is the new movie coming?
