Mumbai, Jan 3 || Bollywood’s Greek God Hrithik Roshan shared a glimpse into his cultural roots as he proudly spoke about his “25 percent Bengali blood” shining through.
For the unversed, Hrithik has Bengali blood through his paternal grandmother Ira Roshan, who was a Bengali Brahmin. She was married to the legendary music director Roshanlal Nagrath.
The actor took to Instagram to share his love for Bengali cuisine, tagging his post with #ShonarBangla and #MachcharJhol.
He wrote: “That's the 25% Bengali blood in me shining through. #shonarbangla #machcharJhol.”
Hrithik was nicknamed Duggu by his grandmother Ira, who reversed his father Rakesh Roshan's nickname Guddu.
The actor’s image seems to be taken ahead of his cousin’s wedding as he was dressed in traditional wear.
