K-pop sensation Jackson Wang is making waves in Mumbai, not just promoting his upcoming album Magic Man 2, but also sparking buzz about a Bollywood debut. During his visit, Wang met Bollywood star Hrithik Roshan and his family, fueling speculation about a collaboration for the highly anticipated film Krrish 4.

Known for his admiration of Indian culture, Wang has expressed deep respect for Indian music and dance, recalling how Hrithik once showed him the iconic "Ek Pal ka Jeena" video, which left him "awestruck." Fans are excited about the possibility of Wang lending his voice to a song in the film, marking a significant crossover between K-pop and Bollywood.

Jackson's visit to Mumbai also included immersing himself in local culture, enjoying street foods like vada pav and paani puri, and even playing cricket on Juhu beach. This cultural engagement highlights his genuine interest in India beyond professional commitments.

"There’s no ‘inspiration’ per se. It’s based on what I’ve experienced," Wang said about his new album, which promises a more introspective and gritty evolution of his Magic Man persona.

While primarily in India to promote Magic Man 2, sources close to the team confirm that the collaboration rumors with Hrithik Roshan are gaining traction, potentially marking Jackson Wang's Bollywood debut and a new chapter in his international career.

This potential partnership between a K-pop icon and a Bollywood superstar could open new avenues for cross-cultural entertainment collaborations, blending music and cinema from two vibrant industries.
