A promo of Kites, scheduled to be screened with the release of My Name is Khan, has been leaked on the internet


A special two-and-a-half-minute promo of Rakesh Roshan's Kites will hit the theatres on February 12, with the release of My Name Is Khan.

The promo showcases the love story between Barbara Mori and Hrithik Roshan, and even has a kissing scene. However, instead of hoping that the promo makes the right impact, the producers are now scratching their heads over a totally unforeseen problem.

The promo has been leaked and already made its way to the internet. The promo was specially made and sent to the 20th century Fox office in USA, who will release My Name Is Khan internationally.

Our source said, "Rakesh Roshan, the unit at Filmkraft and director Anurag Basu had made this promo keeping the international market in mind. This was supposed to be released with My Name Is Khan as it has a grand overseas release. The promo was made and sent to the US office of Fox Studios. However, now the office has learnt that the promo has been leaked on the net on Wednesday. Everyone was in shock and didn't know how this happened. Rakesh Roshan and the entire unit of Reliance Big Pictures were in the process of removing the promos from youtube as the novelty factor would have worn off by the time My Name Is Khan releases."

Rakesh Roshan said that he was busy in a meeting and then remained unavailable for comment. Reliance Big pictures also remained unavailable for comment.
