How is The Roshans?
The film industry has come a long way in more than 100 years. During this period, many entertainers came into the industry and created an atmosphere with their fun. There were some whose coming generations took up art and embellished, cherished and carried forward their heritage. Whenever there is talk of family in Bollywood, the name of Kapoor family comes first. Then the name of Bachchan family is taken. Nowadays, Deol family also remains in the news due to many valid reasons. But there is also a family which has been a part of the industry for more than 7 decades but never glorified it much.
But this family can be called the family of Bollywood which has the most expansion in art. Among the Kapoors, except 1-2, all were actors. Was also seen with Bachchan family and Deol family. But if you look towards the Roshans family, you will find that this is such a family in the industry whose members are today included in the list of excellent artists from different departments. A series based on these Roshans is streaming on Netflix. Its title is also ‘The Roshans’. There are 4 episodes of this series in which artists from 3 different eras have been included. In this, the first episode is dedicated to the legendary music director Roshan. The second episode is dedicated to his son and music director Rajesh Roshan. The third episode is dedicated to actor-director and Roshan’s second son Rakesh Roshan. Talking about the fourth episode, it has been dedicated to Rakesh Roshan’s son Hrithik Roshan.
How is the series?
This series is divided into 4 episodes and each episode is dedicated to the name of a different personality. It starts with Roshan. Musician Roshan’s contribution to the industry can never be forgotten. The sweetness of his nature is also reflected in his music. His career did not become very big and he said goodbye to the world in the early 70s, but even after this, in whatever work he did, he gifted countless songs to the music listeners. Chitralekha’s song is in Rafi’s voice, which is written by Sahir Ludhianvi and whose music is given by Roshan. If ever God comes down to earth and asks for a song to sing, this is the most sacred and simple song he would choose. It has already been chosen as the best song of the country in a survey.
The same was seen with Mukesh also. Look at the simplicity and natural truth of the song O Re Taal Mile Nadi Jal Mein. And the magic of Roshan’s music got mixed in Mukesh’s voice. Even take Majrooh Sultanpuri’s song Rahe Na Rahe Hum, written for Lata, how for Lata, who recorded thousands of superhit songs, this song became the essence of her life and even today it resonates in the streets and reaches her ears.

After that, the way Rajesh Roshan’s career, success and his aura have been shown in this series is also amazing. You can’t miss it like this. If anyone has truly carried forward and cherished his father’s legacy in the film industry, then Rajesh Roshan’s name should come first in it. Like his father, Rajesh Roshan also served music. And also gave a new direction to Bollywood. Who can forget the songs of the movie Julie? Even the music of the songs of Kaho Na Pyaar Hai for Hrithik was given by Rajesh Roshan. It has been 25 years since the songs of that film were released but those songs still sound absolutely real.
The series shows the career of Rakesh Roshan and his journey of failure and success. His failure as an actor and his success as a director have been shown through the series. After a lot of struggle, a member of a noble family got a chance to establish himself in the industry. But when he met, he carried out his work with the same innovation for which the Roshan family is known. In the end, Hrithik Roshan’s biography was also shown which is still incomplete. Because at the age of 51, Hrithik is still active as a lead actor. Who created a new definition of the hero of the modern era with his dance, personality and depth and became the first choice of the youth.
Bollywood’s most talented family
There is no doubt that the contribution of Roshan family could not be told through any one film. Therefore, it was told in the form of a series and small and big aspects of the career were covered in great detail. In this, takes were also taken of many actors including Karan Johar, Taran Adarsh, Anil Kapoor, Shahrukh Khan, Farah Khan and Abhishek Bachchan with whom the Roshan family had an attachment on the professional or personal front.
A true tribute to a good family
Although the Roshan family never accepted their validation and remained known as the most respected family of the industry. The artists who came in every generation did their work flawlessly. Be it acting, direction, music, writing or film production, the Roshan family has a name for itself. Such detail which cannot be included in 4 episodes of one season but glimpses of it can definitely be shown which you will get to see in this series.
