Says a source, “His second son Hridhaan was born on June 1 so he wanted to spend time with his family due to which he skipped all award functions that were held abroad and refused work that kept him away from home for long periods of time but now he is ready.”
On the shooting schedule, the source reveals, “Hrithik, his father Rakesh and Anurag Kashyap will fly to New Mexico in mid-July to personally oversee the building of the sets. The shooting will start on the 25th. Kites will be shot across New Mexico, Los Angeles, Arizona and Las Vegas.”
Further, Hrithik's manager informs us, “Kites has a 3 month long schedule in the States and another 2 month long schedule in Mumbai will complete the film. Hrithik is not doing anything after that."
Director Anurag Basu is obviously excited about his high flying venture but remains tight lipped about the plot and the reason behind the film's title. "Kites have a poetic and chronological significance in the movie is all that I can say. Once you see the promo, you will understand the reason behind the title,” says Basu.
Reports claim that the movie is inspired by Woody Allen's adulterous drama Match Point. Hrithik's character is like a kite which keeps wandering but always flies high. He has a mistress and a wife portrayed by Kangana and Barbara respectively.
Mr. Basu has also rubbished reports that Hrithik will speak in an American accent in Kites. He clarifies, “Hrithik is not learning to speak in the American accent for Kites. Even the actresses are not learning anything special or new to prepare for the role. They are holidaying and relaxing before filming begins in July end.”
This year, Hrithik wooed audiences with his portrayal of Emperor Akbar in the love saga Jodhaa Akbar; he showed off his super smooth dance moves in the Krazzy 4 video and performed some dangerous stunts in a few commercials. He also shot for his guest appearance in Zoya Akthar's Luck By Chance in Mumbai.
