More about Koi Mil Gaya

The sci-fi film Koi Mil Gaya featuring an alien was released in 2003. Starring Hrithik Roshan, Preity Zinta and Rekha, Koi...Mil Gaya and the superhero film Krrish franchise stands to be the first multi-genre story franchise that carries forward characters and storyline from its preceding parts.

"Koi...Mil Gaya was an ambitious and risky film to make back in 2003, I had only envisioned it as a solo film. Over years we saw the opportunity, and turned it into a Superhero franchise, it was the first time in Indian cinema that a storyline and character journeys were being carried forward as a franchise," Rakesh told IANS.

The 73-year-old filmmaker said that he continues to have the same ambition for the future of Krrish franchise, because of the availability of advanced technology, adding that "sky's the limit for our imagination."

The film is set to complete the milestone of 20 years. It revolved around Rohit (Hrithik), a developmentally disabled man who contacts an extraterrestrial being with his late father Sanjay's (Rakesh Roshan) computer. The film follows his relationship with Nisha (Preity), Rohit's friend, who falls in love with him.

Reminiscing about the making of the movie: "When we set out to make Koi...Mil Gaya there were no reference points from past Indian films that we could take as the concept of an Alien was completely new for the Indian audience. Adding to that task was Hrithik's character Rohit who is a mentally challenged boy other than 9-10 year old child artists," he said.
