It is hard to imagine, but the 'Greek God' of Bollywood, Hrithik Roshan, known for his impeccable acting and dancing skills, was fighting a silent battle with himself for more than 2 decades. Hrithik used to stammer since childhood, something which made it extremely difficult for him to realize his dream of being an actor.
During his 2009 interaction with filmmaker and choreographer Farah Khan on the show, "Tere Mere Beach Mein," Hrithik revealed that even his doctor had told him that he should not be an actor. "You can't be an actor, you should not be an actor. There is still time, you are 21, you can do something else," the doctor had said.
