Anurag Basu did a smart remix-job with his directorial extravaganza – ‘Kites’. He added the charming cinematographic sauce of Ayananka Bose to the magical chemistry between Hrithik Roshan and Barbara Mori, garnished the blend with the editing mastery of Avik Ali, frosted the mélange with the choreography of Flexy Stu and Loren L and beatified the cliché love story with the color of three different languages: English, Hindi and Spanish. The final product – a slick movie that scintillates the screen with the Greek God looks of Hrithik Roshan and the oomph of Barbara Mori, but unfortunately, terribly predictable and too long for my appointment with a predicted disappointment of 127 minutes.
Kites has a unique storyline and a dance based romance thriller. In the harsh terrain of the Mexican desert, a mortally wounded man is left or dead in the heat of the desert sun. This is J. Once a street smart, carefree young guy. Now, a wanted man. The only thing that keeps him alive is the quest to find the love of his life, Natasha. A woman engaged to another man, surely destined for J. A woman who comes into his life like a bolt of lightning and changes it forever. KITES is a story of love that goes beyond barriers, boundaries and cultures. It is a story of passion that defies every rule, of a relationship that takes two lovers on thrilling journey filled with precious moments - and unexpected betrayal.
Kites Preview
A love story that crosses borders and linguistic barriers, Kites is a tale of romance between an Indian guy and a Mexican beauty.
Starring Hrithik Roshan and Barbara Mori in lead roles, the movie is directed by Anurag Basu and produced by Rakesh Roshan .
The film has Hrithik playing a man named J, who once used to be a clever, street smart, charming guy, but is now a wanted man. To add to his woes he's left to die in the scorching heat of the Mexican desert. Only one desire keeps him alive, to find the woman he loves.
That woman is Natasha (Barbara Mori). She is engaged to another man, but that makes no difference to J. If loving her brings down loads of troubles on him, J would happily bear it all.
What is the fate of this love story where the lovers don't even speak each other's languages? While she talks in Spanish, he speaks Hindi with a smattering of English.
Kangana Ranaut completes the love triangle by adding another angle to the Hrithik-Barbara love story.
The film has some breath-taking dances from Hrithik, Barbara and Kangana. The choreography in these songs is by Flexy Stu, a renowned American choreographer. For one song shot in Mumbai, Farah Khan did the choreography.
