In 2006, Roshan starred in two top-grossing productions of the year.[14] He portrayed the eponymous superhero in Krrish, a sequel to Koi... Mil Gaya, and won another Best Actor award at Filmfare for playing a thief in the adventure film Dhoom 2.[15][16] Two years later, he gained a fourth Best Actor award at Filmfare for playing the Mughal emperor Akbar in Ashutosh Gowariker's period romance Jodhaa Akbar (2008).[17] Roshan starred in two commercially unsuccessful films of 2010Template:MdashKites and GuzaarishTemplate:Mdashbut earned praise for portraying a quadriplegic magician in the latter.[7][18] In 2011, he featured as a talent judge for the television dance reality show Just Dance.[19] Roshan also played one of the three leads alongside Farhan Akhtar and Abhay Deol in the Zoya Akhtar-directed comedy-drama Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara (2011), following which he played a man seeking vengeance in Agneepath (2012), a remake of the 1990 film of the same name.[20][21] In 2013, Roshan starred in the third installment of the Krrish franchise, and the following year, he starred in Bang Bang!, a remake of the 2010 Hollywood film Knight and Day.[22][23] These films rank among his biggest commercially successes.[24] In 2019, Roshan starred in the biopic Super 30, in which he portrayed the mathematician Anand Kumar, and in the action thriller War, which ranks as his highest-grossing release.[25][26][27] His first film in three years, the action thriller Vikram Vedha (2022), was not financially profitable despite positive reviews.[28]
