Hrithik Roshan is so enticed by the skills of Barbara Mori that he wants to work with her in more movies in future. Despite the earlier rumours that linked Hrithik with Barbara and which threatened his marriage, Hrithik is adamant is having Mori opposite him in his forthcoming movie of Zoya Akhtar.

 

Hrithik appreciates Mori’s professionalism and acting skills and aspires to do his next movie with her. He recommends Mori for Zoya Akhtar’s road trip movie where he plays the lead role. However, Zoya does not go with Hrithik’s choice and has declined to cast Mori in her movie. Hrithik still does not accept defeat and goes on trying to persuade Zoya for Mori. The film is set in Spain and casts other stars like Abhay Deol and Farhan Akhtar.

 

As per a source, "It was Duggu`s idea that they cast Barbara for the role. However, Zoya wasn`t too convinced. She decided to hold auditions and cast someone else for the role. Casting for the female lead (opposite Hrithik) remains open."

 

However, Hrithik thinks it is too early to quit from the persuasion. "Whenever he meets producers or filmmakers, he only has words of praise for Barbara. It`s clear that he definitely wants to work with her again irrespective of the fate of ‘Kites’, their upcoming release", adds the source.
