Hrithik Roshan is wearing his heart on his sleeve and it’s all for his girlfriend Saba Azad. The actor took to Instagram to share a deeply personal and emotional note praising Saba’s performance in her latest film Songs of Paradise.
Alongside a carousel of stills from the film, Hrithik opened up about how proud he is of Saba — not just for her talent, but for the journey she’s taken to get here.
“The genuine praise I'm hearing all around for the makers, technicians and artists associated with Songs of Paradise is truly heartening. I watched this movie in its rough form many months ago, and I remember being touched to my core,” he wrote.
Calling her “an incredible artiste,” Hrithik went on to describe how moved he was by the film and especially by Saba’s character, Zeba.
“Tears that filled me up with such deep love, especially for the character of Zeba. The humongous applause this movie is getting today has restored my infallible faith in the universe. You get what you deserve. And you @sabazad for the incredible artiste you are, for the exquisite art you create, deserve all the applause coming your way.”
But it was what he shared next that truly struck a chord — Hrithik opened up about having witnessed Saba’s struggles first-hand, describing the emotional toll the industry can take on genuinely talented artists.
“I have seen your struggle, the helplessness, the frustrations, the agony that so many amazing artistes suffer from — of craving the basic right to opportunity that genuine talent deserves in a business that demands 'followers' before the 'actor'. Which is why today I feel the lightness of unbridled joy watching you get what you deserve. And you, my love, deserve the world and more,” he wrote.

In a touching sign-off, he added, “This performance goes down as my top 10 performances ever. Rock on, baby. My heart is full. I love you.”
Songs of Paradise, now streaming on Prime Video, is inspired by the life and music of legendary Kashmiri singer Raj Begum. The film, directed by Danish Renzu, also features Soni Razdan, Zain Khan Durrani, Sheeba Chaddha, and Lillete Dubey.
