Taking to his Instagram, Hrithik wrote, “Today marks the 106th birth anniversary of my Daduji – Roshan, whose name I inherit . Although I never had the honor of meeting him, learning from him or physically experiencing his love, I am blessed with a priceless treasure: his work… his music. Legends have a way of transcending time through their art. His songs are the foundation of the Roshan family’s journey and I am immensely proud to be a part of his extraordinary lineage.”

The actor celebrated Roshan ji’s ‘immortal’ legacy with his last recorded track, ‘Koi Jaane Na’. He added, “Celebrating my Daduji’s immortal legacy through one of my favourite songs by him… I celebrate this song even more because my Daduji never got to celebrate its success… he passed away soon after he recorded this brilliant track. He was 40 years old.” Roshan ji had given music to some memorable films including Bawre Nain, Chandni Chowk, Barsaat Ki Raat, Dil Hi To Hai and Taj Mahal amongst others.
