Hrithik Roshan has attached himself to the Ryan Gosling starrer Project Hail Mary as a presenter for the upcoming film in India. On Friday, the actor shared on social media a promotional clip for the film where he can be seen teaching his iconic dance moves from Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai to Rocky, the robot from the Gosling starrer.

Hrithik Roshan tries to encourage Rocky with a basic "you can do this" speech. However, Rocky admits to the actor that it cannot analyse dance. Pop comes the reply from the superstar: "Do not analyse dance. Just feel the dance. Feel the rhythm." Soon, Rocky nails the dance move, earning a compliment from Hrithik.

However, Jaadoo from Hrithik's 2003 film Koi... Mil Gaya makes its presence felt in the room, interfering with his conversation with Rocky. The robot asks him, "Is that your ex-alien friend?" Hrithik responds, saying, "He is my current alien friend. He is my forever friend."

Soon, he tries to calm Jaadoo down by saying that it is just a promotional gig for Project Hail Mary. "I have read the book, it is an amazing story, Jaadoo. Like us, they also save the whole universe and all. It is so exciting. Let us go for it," he tells the alien, and the latter soon gives into his pursuit. Soon, a clip from the upcoming film plays onscreen, with Hrithik's voice-over saying, "Like me, go with your best friends for the big screen experience of the year."

Directed by Phil Lord and Chris Miller from Andy Weir's eponymous novel, Project Hail Mary features Ryan Gosling in the role of an astronaut who is on a mission trying to keep the Sun from dying out and thus save Earth from extinction. The film is slated for a March 26 release in theatres in India, including IMAX screens.
