'Kites' gets ready to fly high

Directed by Anurag Basu, “Kites” is a mega-budget venture produced in two versions – English and Hindi.

Releasing simultaneously on more than 2,300 screens worldwide, including over 500 overseas in more than 60 countries, it has been distributed by Reliance Big Pictures.
Following a phased release pattern, “Kites” will first release in India, the US, Britain, UAE, Australia, South Africa and 30 other countries on Friday while in the second phase, it will release in an additional 30 countries, which include various non-traditional markets.     
Shot in Los Angeles, Las Vegas and Santa Fe, the English version of the movie “Kites: The Remix” is presented and reworked by well known Hollywood director Brett Ratner. It releases on May 28.

“Indian and international versions both are very similar. There’s just the length issue as the international version is little shorter otherwise both are very much the same,” said Basu.
