Hrithik Roshan will join Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan and Aishwarya Rai in Madame Tussauds later this week, as he unveils his wax figure on January 14.

The actor invited the media to his residence in Mumbai on his birthday, January 10, and chatted about the events in his life.

Here's what he said:

You're a year older. How does it feel?

It's just another day. Numbers and years are man made. You should not go by them. You are as young as your heart tells you. I'm 18 in my heart and mind except that my knees hurt more than they used to.

What gift did your children give you?

Hrehaan and Hridhaan can speak a bit now and can articulate themselves. So there were more words this year, and more things that they made for me, and that touched my heart.

'Two of the most important films of my life did not fare well last year'

At 37, you have been voted the most desirable man in the country. How does it feel?

It feels very good. Two of the most important films of my life did not fare well last year (Kites and Guzaarish), so it feels nice that in spite of that, I am so desired.

Many people think that you deserved the Star Screen Award for Best Actor more than anybody else. What do you think?

I think you get what you've deserved. If someone else received the award, they must have deserved it more. I am sure there were times when I won the Best Actor award for a performance that may not have been the best in other people's eyes. So it's okay. You get some, you lose some.

'I have three films this year, they are all challenging roles'

How excited are you about your 2011 releases?

Very excited! I have three films -- Zindagi Mile Na Dobaara, Krrish 2 and the Agneepath remake. They are all challenging roles. I have finished with one film already. I will start Agneepath now, and then move on to Krrish.

I am very happy that papa (Rakesh Roshan) has finally decided to make Krrish. It was my dream to make another Krrish. Finally, that's happened.

I tweeted to my fans and asked them to send some thoughts to my dad and something happened because of those thoughts. He woke up one morning with an idea, and now there will be another Krrish soon.

'I regard Abhishek not just as a very close friend but also as a great artiste'

Karan Johar asked Abhishek Bachchan on Koffee with Karan that if he would go to a masquerade party, what will he dress up as. Abhishek replied, that he would go as Agneepath, and show us how it's done the right way. What do you have to say to that?

I regard Abhishek not just as a very close friend but also as a great artiste. Most of us will think that we have egos about receiving a tip or two but I think we should all help each other to be better. So if I get a tip from Abhishek on anything, I will listen. I may agree or I may not. But I would love to discuss it with him.
