Hrithik Roshan has sung an English song for his next, Kites. The king of perfection went through a voice modulation course for it
Hrithik Roshan has performed dangerous stunts, breathtaking dances and played a perfect lover-boy. Yet there's more to him, he is now ready to sing for his next film, Kites, directed by Anurag Basu.
Kites will have Hrithik singing an English song. Says a well-placed source from the industry, "Hrithik finished recording a song for Rajesh Roshan last week for his film, Kites. It was Anurag's and Rajeshji's idea to persuade Hrithik to sing. Hrithik, known to experiment and go for anything new, loved the idea and agreed immediately."
However, the king of perfectionism, underwent rigorous training before recording the song. According to our source, just as he had undergone training to get the Urdu diction right before playing Akbar in Jodhaa Akbar, for his character in Kites, he learnt to speak English with an American accent and to sing with that accent too.
Adds our source, "Once it was decided by Anurag, Hrithik and Rakeshji that Hrithik would sing in their film, Hrithik went through a systematic training for voice modulation. He hasn't been shooting for any film so he had enough time to devote to these sessions and he made the best of them."
Hirthik has left for Mexico to shoot for the film to be produced by Rakesh Roshan. His uncle, Rajesh Roshan, is the music director. The movie tells the story of a cosmopolitan man torn between his wife and his mistress.
