When Hrithik Roshan slapped the hot Barbara Mori!
Rakesh Roshan's mega opus 'Kites' has courted all sorts of controversies, right from the growing intimacy between Hrithik Roshan and Barabra Mori to the reportedly crumbling marriage of Hrithik and Sussanne. So, quite expectedly, the movie and its lead pair have become hot.
A lot has been written about the on-screen chemistry between Hrithik Roshan and Mexican hottie Barbara Mori, but both share a great off-screen chemistry also, according to the director of 'Kites' – Anurag Basu.
Talking to a news daily about the Hrithik-Barbara chemistry, Anurag recalled a humorous event from 'Kites', "We were doing an intense scene which had a long dialogue. Towards the end, Barbara was supposed to slap Hrithik. We okayed the scene. But Barbara asked me if it was possible to do a retake, because she wanted to slap Hrithik again. It was a prank, but I decided to play along. Duggu was very surprised when I told him we'd do the scene again because I'd already told him the earlier take was fine."
With Basu frantically trying to convince Hrithik, the actor became cautious. "So when we shot again, just as Barbara was about to slap him, Duggu ducked and slapped her instead. Barbara was shocked. Then she realised that Hrithik had seen through her prank and everyone on the sets burst out laughing," said a playful Basu.
