Hrithik Roshan’s role of a paraplegic in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Guzaarish has touched the megastar’s heart in more ways than one.After working with the brilliant director, Hrithik did a lot of research on paraplegic patients and their condition. He met many of them and the meetings helped him essay their troubles more easily in the movie.

However, Hrithik didn’t forget them once the film was over. He wanted to help as many paraplegic patients as possible in any way he could. In fact, when Hrithik learnt a patient didn’t have enough funds for treatment, the actor arranged caretakers and doctor’s visits to the patient’s home. A source close to Hrithik reveals, “Such a role will have a deep impact on anyone’s mind.

For Hrithik, it has helped him look at life, world and people differently.”
