Hrithik flies solo

Unhappy with the choreographer’s work on the sets of Kites, Hrithik Roshan took it upon himself to choreograph his own steps

Hrithik Roshan, who plays Kangana Ranaut’s dance teacher in Kites, was so upset with his US-based choreographer Flexi’s assistants that he took it upon himself to choreograph his dance steps.

According to our source, the assistants were unable to get the right moves for the heavy-duty dance number.

“Hrithik wanted nothing but the best and he even flew down an international choreographer, Flexi, who had earlier worked with the actor on some ads.

But Hrithik was very unhappy with the way things were shaping up as far as the steps were concerned. At one point, Hrithik started regretting his choice of choreographer.”

Confirms a unit member, “Hrithik was not satisfied with the steps and kept pushing the choreographer and his assistants to come up something better.

They did show him a range of steps but they failed to meet Hrithik’s expectations. When they could not come up with something extraordinary, Hrithik got fed-up and started choreographing his own steps.

He would then rehearse the steps for hours.”

According to our source from the unit, apart from not getting the right steps the choreographer also had a serious tiff with an assistant director. “He didn’t get along well with the crew members and this aggravated the situation.” Hrithik, known for his dancing skills ever since his debut film Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai, is the most sought-after actor as far as special appearance in a song sequence is concerned.

Adds our source, “His intention was to better what he had already done.”
