He played a romantic guy in "Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai", a Muslim boy in "Fiza", a master thief in "Dhoom 2", an emperor in "Jodha Akbar" and a superhero in "Krrish". Now Bollywood veteran Shabana Azmi wants actor Hrithik Roshan to reprise the role of Raanjha from Chetan Anand's "Heer Raanjha".

Hrithik, who has showcased his versatility on screen, asked his fans on micro-blogging site Twitter to suggest to him the kind of roles he should now play.

"What kind of characters do u think I should do? Inspire me. Give me ideas. Looking for something," he tweeted.

To this, Shabana tweeted: "@iHrithik you should play Raanjha in a remake of Chetan Anand's 'Heer Raanjha' where the entire dialogue is in verse!"

Hrithik further thanked his fans for suggesting ideas and tweeted: "My timeline is BUZZING with ideas! Some really great ones! Keep em coming. U guys are great."

Hrithik was last seen in the 2014 film "Bang Bang" and is currently shooting for Ashutosh Gowariker's epic adventure-romance "Mohenjo Daro" opposite actress Pooja Hegde, who is making her debut in tinsel town with the film.
