The government of Maharashtra has approached Bollywood actor Hrithik Roshan to be the face of the state.
Hrithik Roshan, who is the heartthrob of the younger generation in India and has a huge fan following, seems to be the best brand ambassador of the state.
The state of Maharashtra is planning to revamp its image as a tourist friendly destination and plan to rope in Hrithik.
They plan to shoot a short film with him in places such as Mumbai, Mahabaleshwar, Kolhapur and Raigad. A photo shoot is also being -planned with the actor, reports Zoom TV.
Till now there hasn't been any confirmation from the actor's end. Hrithik is busy filming 'with Krrish 3' for another four-five months.
If he accepts the responsibility, he will be the third actor from Bollywood to represent a state in India.
Veteran Bollywood actor Amitabh Bachchan is the brand ambassador for the state of Gujarat. He has travelled many times to Gujarat and has been campaigning extensively.
Recently Shah Rukh Khan was chosen as the brand ambassador of West Bengal sparking controversy as to why other Bengali actors were not given the opportunity.
It now remains to be seen if Hrithik will be able to manage some time out from his busy schedule and accept the state government's offer.
