Things are not in favour of Rakesh Roshan’s Kites in New Mexico. The producer upset cinematographer Bobby Singh so much that the he stormed out of the under-production film. Kites, being directed by Anurag Basu stars Hrithik Roshan and Barbara Mori. It was the director who brought the cinematographer on board. They’d worked together in the past in Metro, Woh Lamhe and Gangster. And Roshan agreed to have him on board after seeing his work.
According to a reliable source, “Bobby and Anurag are friends, besides being a great team. Basu appreciates Bobby’s work and gives him a free hand. But Roshan had his own ideas of how the film should look. He didn’t agree with Bobby’s style and would interfere in camera angles and light shots etc. Initially Bobby kept quiet as Rakesh is a senior filmmaker and creative differences happen on every set. But as the days went by, Bobby felt his work as a cinematographer was increasingly getting undermined.”
