Hrithik Roshan has taken special acting classes from Aaron Speiser, who has been a personal acting coach to Will Smith.
It looks like actor Hrithik Roshan has a common link with Hollywood superstar Will Smith.
DNA has learnt that Duggu has taken special acting classes from Aaron Speiser, who has been a personal acting coach to Will in
I Robot,
I Am Legend,
Hancock and
Seven Pounds while he was shooting in America for his forthcoming film
Kites.
Aaron has also helped out Jennifer Lopez in
Cantante,
El, Dwayne Johnson (WWE wrestler The Rock) in
Be Cool and Mandy Moore in
A Walk to Remember. An insider close to the development of the film says, “The shoot in USA was little longish as the crew was shooting in Los Angeles, Las Vegas and New Mexico. Hrithik plays a salsa teacher in the film. Though Hrithik is dubbed to be a good actor, he goes the extra mile always for his films. So he wanted to fine-tune his acting skills as
Kites is a very big film for him and he plays a character hardly essayed by Indian actors. He suggested that he wanted to undergo a workshop and his father (Rakesh Roshan) gave him Will Smith’s acting coach Aaron who has done over four films with Hollywood’s biggest star.”
Says Rakesh Roshan, “It is true that we had hired him but it was for around three weeks. We hired him for some finer touches like teaching Hrithik as well as other cast members how American English needs to be spoken. His classes have really worked. The film and the characters look authentic. I can’t disclose how much we have paid him — that’s an internal matter.”
The source adds, “Aaron has been paid a bomb obviously as he became Hrithik’s acting coach in
Kites and exclusively sat down with him and trained him while he was in America. Hrithik feels the training has done him a world of good. He followed strict schedules with him for over two weeks. Aaron has been in the business for over 25 years and has taught Hrithik the finer nuances of acting in a simple, straightforward, practical and inspirational way.”
