Recently, B-Town's dancing superstar, Hrithik Roshan was honoured with the Brand Visionary of the Year for HRX at the Colors Awards. On winning the award, an elated Hrithik gave an emotional speech, in which he thanked his two sons Hrehaan and Hridaan for being his inspiration. The actor, who is busy with 'Mohenjo Daro' currently, opened his heart thus -

"I have received many awards in my life but this one means a lot more than any single one of them; because it stands for something very close to my heart... Something that was inspired by my children and extends beyond to all the children of the world."

"I believe every child has the potential to contribute something amazing to this world. But I also know that in their journey they are going to encounter a lot of failures a lot of fear and setbacks, some that may even devastate them. I know this from my own journey of battling my fears and my set of failures and setbacks."

"As a child I had many fears, I lived in a box and in that box were all my handicaps, my challenges and my difficulties, and I viewed the entire world through that box. I never knew there could be a life beyond that was beautiful. I never imagined there could be a life without fear. But then I took a decision to Break out of that box. I attacked all my fears and discovered a new life. That taught me a great lesson and it propelled me to give back and contribute to all my fans and people of the world."

"One day I looked into my children's eyes and thought how great I would be if I could create a model for them, a symbol to inspire and empower them, to help them believe, not just believe but prove to them infallibly through million examples that impossible is nothing!! That they could create the life that they wanted and achieve all that they aspired no matter what! That every problem physical or mental had a solution and that through this education they could harness their fears and learn to overcome every demon that threatened their passion and their dreams."

"That is the day HRX was born. It's when I realized that my greatest accomplishment would be if I could make my children fearless! THE MISSION OF HRX is huge. It's a movement that will make a nation of champions. To enable and empower every single person who wants to make a change but is disabled by fear or the assumption that "I can't". I believe a disabled spirit is the worst of all handicaps!"

"My children are not only the inspiration behind this but thru time have become examples of it. They have already learnt to attack every fear and in doing so have accomplished some great feats! For example I am very proud to say that both Hrehaan and Hridaan are probably the youngest snowboarders you can find. Hrehaan is also a scuba diver and they did this inspite of feeling fear. For that I think they deserve a huge round of applause!"

"I wanted them to hold this award this evening for it is a prize for them too and I share this award with them. I want to thank you Hrehaan and Hridaan for being daddy's inspiration...daddy loves you very much!

"I want you all to go back this evening and look your families in their eyes and tell them that they are GREAT! And that they must dream big! Bigger than big! Not thru logic but through their imagination because it's only through our imagination that we can truly discover our true potential! And they can because as I said - nothing is impossible!"
