Katrina Kaif, Deepika Padukone or Anushka Sharma: Who will be Hrithik Roshan’s heroine in Krrish 4?

Rakesh Roshan had said, "A superhero like Krissh needs a super-heroine, nothing less. No ordinary mortal. Someone who can fly, fight and save the world in one breath, figuratively speaking of course. And all our top rung actresses are more than super-heroines. As to who it will be finally saving the world with Krissh? Wait and watch. That's a secret for now." Bollywood's blockbuster superhero franchise Krrish is set to return with its fourth installment, and the search of the film's female lead has already begun. And with several names popping up, to think of who will match the powers of Hrithik Roshan, is as exciting as the wait for Krrish 4. Daddy Roshan has confirmed that the female lead will be an A-list actress for sure. And this has triggered speculations about who the leading lady will be this time. With several names in the fray, let's take a look at the top women who will fight it out to fight and romance alongside our homegrown superhero -- Krrish.

Katrina Kaif - We saw how they sizzled in Bang Bang. And considering the film was an out and out action flick, where Kat even shot guns and chased cars, it shoudln't be much difficult for her to get into the shoes of another action avatar. We know she hasn't tasted success at the box office for sometime now. So if she gets selected for Krrish 4, it might just bring back her happy days. Rakesh Roshan has said the film is slated for a release at the end of 2018 or early 2019.

Deepika Padukone - Filmmakers have been for long trying to sign both Hrithik and Deepika together. Now will this jinx get over with Krrish 4? Deepika has indulged in enough action in Chandni Chowk To China and Bajirao Mastani. And her xXx: Return of Xander Cage is giving us enough proof why she will fit this role as well.

Anushka Sharma - She has surely come a long way. And now if we see her doing action, we won't be surprised. Can we forget her fiery attitude and powerful performance in NH10? Anushka is the perfect blend of cute meets courageous. She can surely add that punch to Hrithik's superhero act.

Jacqueline Fernandez - She did some awesome sword fighting in Race 2. And she has the shape to wear that catwoman suit and lure the villains too. Are we thinking way too much? Well, Jacky surely has that X-factor which makes her a strong contender.

Parineeti Chopra - We saw Hrithik romance her sister Priyanka Chopra in Krrish and Krrish 3. It'll be exciting to see how he will do that with Parineeti too. And knowing that she has got over with that extra kilos and achieved a fab athletic body, Pari is totally ready for an action-packed role. Just waiting for the right scripts, Parineeti?

In the earlier films, the actresses did not have much to do apart from romance Hrithik or get trapped in the villain's den. But this time, Rakesh Roshan has promised that the actress will have much more to do, not just stay glamorous. This time, it'll be glamour meets some hardcore punches too! Watch this space for more.
