Actor Hrithik Roshan made an appearance at Goldie Behl's birthday celebration on Saturday. However, he left his admirers concerned after he was seen walking on crutches while arriving at the celebration. Now, Hrithik decided to share the whole story on social media, revealing that his left knee suddenly decided to take two days off and how he has been irritated all day.

Hrithik Roshan on health ordeal

On Sunday, Hrithik took to his Instagram handle and wrote, "Each body part comes with its own ON/OFF button. My left leg uses this feature as a birthright. So does the left shoulder and right ankle. Just goes OFF. It's a mood. This simple product feature has showered me with experiences not available to most humans."

"I find myself smugly walking around with a head full of neurons specialised in sudden hopelessness. A proud owner of a unique synapse system that has attained virtuoso levels in creating downward spirals of dark tunnels with warp-speed sinking abilities leading into many kinds of abyss. All of this confers upon me mental pathways unique to the rest of the species," (sic) he added.

Hrithik Roshan's on-set anecdote

Narrating a hilarious incident from his recent shoot diaries, the actor added, "Now imagine I am on a film set of a serious courtroom where my dialogue is ‘Would you like to come home for dinner?' but my tongue has OFF'ed dinner, and so I end up ingeniously and decidedly and repeatedly inviting him over for ‘lunch' instead, since lunch is still thankfully ON."

Hrithik shared that after multiple tries, the director finally gave up and decided to move on, perhaps attributing the situation to strange providence.

Sharing his internal turmoil through this very serious business, he went on to write, "First, a sudden surprise at saying the wrong word. Then, hands thrown up at repeating the same mistake AGAIN. A deep frown between takes to demonstrate mock self-investigation into this grave situation (Joey style). An audacious flick of the nose (Salman style). And finally, the spouting of a genuine uncontrollable laughter at this private conspiracy with myself - disguised as ‘trying to hide embarrassment' for the benefit of the now slightly concerned audience around me."

On the work front, Hrithik will next be seen making his directorial debut with Krrish 4. He is also co-producing Saba Azad's Storm.
