Plot
Five-year-old Krishna Mehra is the orphaned son of the late scientist, Dr. Rohit Mehra, and his late wife, Nisha, and lives in the small town of Kasauli with his grandmother, Sonia. He is undergoing an intelligence quotient test by his school principal, Father Robericks, who suspects that Krishna has biologically inherited his father's superpowers due to the latter answering all the questions flawlessly. Shocked at learning this, Sonia takes the young Krishna to a remote mountain village in North India to conceal his unique abilities, not wanting to lose her grandson the same way she lost her son and daughter-in-law. Two decades later, an adult Krishna meets vacationing girls, Priya and Honey, who are taken camping near his home by Krishna's friend, Bahadur. After Krishna saves Priya from a hang glider accident, the two become friends and grow close, just before Priya and Honey depart for their home in Singapore, but Krishna has the stronger feelings of love. Before leaving, Priya and Honey have witnessed first-hand some of the special abilities that Krishna exhibits, like talking to animals and superhuman strength.
After returning to Singapore, Priya and Honey are fired by their boss for taking non-permitted 5-days extension of vacation. In an attempt to keep their jobs, Honey suggests inviting Krishna to Singapore and making a

Meanwhile, back in the present time-line, Dr. Arya has rebuilt the computer after 20 years. He tests the computer to reveal his future and is shocked to see Krrish killing him. In an attempt to change his future, Dr. Arya quickly visits Kristian's house and shoots the latter dead, believing him to be Krrish. After learning about Kristian's death and seeing Dr. Arya leaving from his house, Krrish uses his superhuman speed to pursue Dr. Arya's car to his office and his helicopter to his remote island where he has imprisoned Rohit. When Dr. Arya looks into the future again, he sees that the visual has not changed, and is shocked to see Krrish still alive and on his island. When Krrish enters the compound, there is a vicious fight with Dr. Arya's thugs whom Krrish eventually defeats, but Dr. Arya shoots Sinha dead and holds Priya and Rohit at gunpoint. In the final scene, Krrish saves Priya and Rohit and injures Dr. Arya fatally. With his last breath, Dr. Arya asks Krrish who he is, and Krishna reveals himself. After revealing to Rohit that Krishna is his son, Krishna and Priya take Rohit with them back to India, reuniting him with his mother. Rohit finds out that his wife, Nisha, had died after he disappeared. He mourns her along with his mother, son and daughter-in-law, and uses the supercomputer created by his late father to summon his alien friend, Jadoo, whose spaceship can be seen from a distance.

Production
Development
In November 2004, the Roshans confirmed they would produce a sequel to Koi... Mil Gaya (2003).[5][6] They announced that actors Hrithik Roshan and Rekha would return for the sequel, but that Preity Zinta would be replaced by Priyanka Chopra.[6] Chopra also confirmed the same, adding, "The story will start where Koi... Mil Gaya ended."[6] Before Chopra, Amrita Rao was cast as the female lead, and she and Hrithik starred in a photoshoot. However, the results of the photoshoot left Rakesh Roshan dissatisfied, and thus Rao was removed from the project.[7] Rakesh Roshan hoped that the film would be remembered as the first to prove that the Indian film industry is equal to Hollywood.[8] He decided to push the story forward by focusing on the son of the previous films's protagonist, who would inherit his father's special abilities.[5] The story combined elements of Indian mythology (the main character's name Krishna alludes to the Hindu Lord Krishna),[9] Chinese martial arts and Hollywood films to set itself up as a film of global significance.[10]

Filming
Krrish was the first Indian film to be shot in
Filming also took place in Manali and Film City in Mumbai.[22] During filming of a flying stunt, one of the wires that was tied to Hrithik Roshan broke, causing him to fall 50 feet, though he landed safely on a shop's canopy.[23] Hrithik described the incident as a "freak accident", stating, "I was skydiving to my death till I fell on a six-feet-long canopy of a shop that was out because of the slight drizzle. The canopy had iron rods. But I missed those rods too. What do I say? I guess the right word to describe the situation would be jadoo (magic)."[23] Roshan also suffered other injuries during the film's production. He tore the hamstring in his right leg during a circus scene, singed his hair while running through fire in another action scene, and broke his thumb and toe during strenuous training for the wirework.[24]

Critical reviews of the soundtrack were generally favourable, though some in the media called it a disappointment.[8] Joginder Tuteja of Bollywood Hungama gave the album a rating of 3.5 out of 5 stars, saying that it was "another good outing for Bollywood music lovers." He especially praised the songs "Chori Chori", "Koi Tumsa Nahi" and "Pyaar Ki Ek Kahaani."[31] Sukanya Verma of Rediff gave a favourable review for the soundtrack's "catchy" songs. However, she felt that while the songs meshed with the film, "none of them bear the staying power of Rajesh Roshan's earlier soundtracks."[32] Shruti Bhasin of Planet Bollywood enjoyed the original songs, giving 7.5 out of 10 stars, but was disappointed with the remixes.[28] Dr. Mandar V. Bichu of Gulf News said that it did not live up to the pre-release expectations.[33]

Overseas
Overseas reviews were positive.[59] Richard James Havis of The Hollywood Reporter stated, "This Bollywood epic crunches together romance, comedy, extraterrestrials, martial arts, dancing and action to tell an entertaining story about a reluctant Indian superhero" but said it may be "far too crazed for foreign viewers".[59] David Chute of LA Weekly deemed it a "hearty pulp cinema that really sticks to your ribs".[60] Likewise, Laura Kern of The New York Times said it was a blend of carefree romance, show-stopping action and sci-fi.[61] Ronnie Scheib of Variety said that it was an "enjoyable, daffily improbable escapist romp". He praised the action sequences as ingeniously choreographed, but very family-friendly.[62] Though Jaspreet Pandohar of BBC was critical of the script for being "low on originality", he praised Hrithik Roshan's performance and the action scenes.[63] Dr. P.V. Vaidyanathan, in a review for BBC Shropshire, said that the film's excellent special effects were as good as the best from Hollywood, praised Hrithik's acting, but called the music mundane.[64]
