Adversity is important for victory: Hrithik Roshan

Bollywood star Hrithik Roshan reveal that like any normal person, he too has been in situations where he has lost all hope. But he sees such adversities are god-given opportunities to become an improved person, one who understands life and the world better. "They (good or bad times) affect me just like they affect anybody else. I become very comfortable with my adversities because of a few philosophies that I believe in. I never take anything too seriously."When you face adversity, god is giving you an opportunity to become a better person, a better character, more informed and educated about your life and the world," Hrithik told media in a telephonic interview from Mumbai. The 43-year-old, a father of two, says it has taken him almost half his life to realise that he is an adventurer at heart. "I am an adventurer who can't end up doing the same things every day. An adventurer explores and goes places where he is afraid of going, and this holds true for me as an actor as well," he said. The actor's struggle to overcome a stammer during his growing-up years, a broken marriage with childhood sweetheart Sussanne Khan and his legal battle with actress Kangana Ranaut -- these have been some of the phases in Hrithik's life which grabbed public and media attention. But his charisma has remained intact for his fans.
