Monday, 27th Oct 2015, 3:25 PM IST There have been a lot of reports about Vijay Krishna Acharya’s next ‘Thug’ which apparently stars Hrithik Roshan in the lead role. It is now said that the film which will be produced by YRF will have Hrithik playing the role of a pirate. A source said, "YRF is working on two action dramas — ‘Thug’ and ‘Dhoom 4’, both directed by Victor (Vijay Krishna Acharya). The story of ‘Thug’ is kept under wraps as Hrithik begins shooting for it from January next year. It’s a fantasy film, set against a fictional historical setting, and revolves around the adventures of a dashing pirate captain (Hrithik) and his crew. Hrithik’s character is something like Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) and what he plays in the ‘Pirates Of The Caribbean’ (POTC) series. As Aditya Chopra has made a successful franchise of the ‘Dhoom’ series, the idea is to make a Thug series if the first one is successful. Hrithik is excited about playing a swashbuckling pirate, something he hasn’t done before. He has been sitting through various look tests with Victor and Adi. The shooting of ‘Thug’ will begin from January next year."
