Coronavirus: Hrithik shares father Rakesh Roshan's workout video, says virus should be afraid of him

Staying fit and staying positive are the best ways to survive the time in self-quarantine and Rakesh Roshan is doing the same. Recently, Hrithik Roshan shared the director-producer's workout video on Instagram, lauding him for keeping up with his routine.

He wrote, "Damn! That’s My Dad. . N.E.V.E.R. G.I.V.E.S. U.P. This is the kind of Resolve and Determination we all need to have to fight in times like these!... Ps: He'll be 71 this year and works out 2 hours a day. O and he just survived cancer last year. I think the virus should be afraid of him. Very very afraid . Rakesh was diagnosed with early-stage squamous cell carcinoma (throat cancer) in December 2018. He recovered from the disease after undergoing surgery.

Hrithik has been posting about Rakesh's vigor to fight the disease. In January 2019, he shared the news of Rakesh undergoing surgery for cancer and wrote, "Asked my dad for a picture this morning. Knew he wouldn't miss the gym on surgery day. He is probably the strongest man I know. Got diagnosed with early-stage squamous cell carcinoma of the throat a few weeks ago, but he is in full spirits today as he proceeds to battle it. As a family, we are fortunate and blessed to have a leader like him... Love you Dad. (sic)"

The Koi Mil Gaya star is currently in self-quarantine with kids - Hridhaan and Hrehaan - and ex-wife Sussanne Khan. Though the two have parted ways, Sussanne moved in with Hrithik so that both parents can spend time with their kids during the lockdown.

The spread of novel coronavirus has brought the whole country to a halt. While in quarantine, Hrithik is making the most of his time at home with his family.
