Hrithik to be wheelchair bound in Bhansali's film

Hrithik Roshan will be seen in an entirely new avatar in his first film with Sanjay Leela Bhansali . Reports say the actor will play a patient suffering from paraplegia, a disorder that results from spinal cord injury and leads to impairment in sensory or motor functions, often binding the patients to wheelchair or bed.

In the film titled Guzaarish , Hrithik will reportedly play a radio show host. Despite being a paraplegic, the character is charming and intelligent. Aishwarya Rai , who's the film's female lead, plays Hrithik's nurse. She's a married woman but gets attracted to him.

The movie also deals with the subject of euthanasia, or mercy killing.


The subject bears a striking similarity to the 1972 play 'Whose Life Is It Anyway' and the Oscar-winning Spanish film 'The Sea Inside' which was about a bed-ridden man fighting a legal battle for 28 years to end his own life. When he loses the legal battle, he eventually kills himself with the help of a nurse who's in love with him. The film was based on a true story.

Now, how much resemblance Bhansali's 'Guzaarish' has with 'The Sea Inside' remains to be seen?
