What is squamous cell carcinoma of the throat?
It is a primary type of throat cancer which affects the flat cells lining the throat. This means they develop in the squamous cells that line the throat. However, Hrithik and his family are yet to spill more details about it.
Rakesh Roshan, who has directed blockbuster films like Kaho Naa… Pyaar Hai, Koi… Mil Gaya and Krrish, is a strong human being. In 2000, he was shot at by two members of the Mumbai underworld, as Rakesh had refused to share the profits of Kaho Naa… Pyaar Hai with their gang. Luckily, the actor-director survived the attack.
On the work front, Hrithik is currently working on his next film Super 30 based on the life of Bihar-based mathematician Anand Kumar.
