In an interview, Hrithik admitted that Sussanne had changed him in more ways than one. He gives her complete credit for inculcating several values of life in him. It is perhaps this change that rescued him from the jinxed period of his career characterised by consecutive flops like Fiza and Mission Kashmir. 

It was after his wedding that he performed the life-changing role of the mentally challenged Rohit in Koi Mil Gaya. Following that, he bagged many awards for his performances and essayed some spectacular roles in films like Jodhaa Akbar, Krrish, Guzaarrish, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara and Agneepath. Although the couple is not together anymore, this wedding certainly reversed the wheel of fortune for Hrithik.

Akshay Kumar
