From stretching to doing leg squats with heavy weights on shoulders, the filmmaker performed every exercise with utmost grit and passion in the gym along with his trainer.

While sharing his video from the gym on his Instagram handle on Monday, Rakesh wrote, “It's not about being healthy- it's about feeling your best every day.”

Reacting to his post, his son-actor Hrithik Roshan wrote, “Uff d***! Too good papa (raising hands emojis).” Anupam Kher wrote in the comment section, “Har har Mahadev!” Suniel Shetty expressed his admiration for the post by sending a 'heart' emoji. Vicky Kaushal's father and action director Sham Kaushal commented, "Kaya baat. So inspiring. Rakeshji." Tiger Shroff said, “Lovely sir.”

Meanwhile, Rakesh Roshan earlier announced that his son Hrithik Roshan is set to direct the upcoming instalment of Krrish titled Krrish 4.

Sharing a picture with Hritik, whom he fondly calls 'Duggu', Rakesh Roshan on Instagram wrote, "Duggu 25yrs back I launched you as an actor, and today again after 25 years you are being launched as a director by two filmmakers Aditya Chopra & myself to take forward our most ambitious film #Krrish4. Wish you all the success in this new avatar with good wishes and blessings."

Yash Raj Films (YRF) has joined the production of Krrish 4 in association with Rakesh. He expressed his delight at having Aditya Chopra as the producer, saying, "It brings me so much joy to see someone like Adi as the producer of Krrish 4. It was he who convinced Hrithik to sit in the director's chair," in a press note.

He added, "Hrithik and Adi coming together as a producer-director pair with me behind them is a rare and deliciously creative combination! I'm sure they will turn Krrish 4 into a theatrical experience that has never been made in India."

The project is set to commence filming early next year, with further details yet to be disclosed.
