Barbara Mori’s bald and beautiful ‘Kites’ tales
When producer Rakesh Roshan and director Anurag Basu first met Barbara Mori
for Kites story narration in Los Angeles, the actress just had inch long
hair as she had gone completely bald for her role in a Spanish film.
She had just completed shooting for her film Cosas Insignificantes
(Insignificant Things) that spoke of the intricacies of human relations. For
her role, the Mexican beauty had shaved her head, because in the film, her
screen son has cancer and is losing hair, so she expresses solidarity with
him this way.
Producer Rakesh Roshan, who flew to Los Angeles to give Barbara a narration,
admits that when he saw his future heroine with only one inch long hair, he
was hesitant to sign her on. “I was aghast,” admits Rakesh. “I asked her
how we would shoot with her six months down the line, but she was confident
that her hair would grow or else she suggested that she would put hair
extensions.”
Director Anurag adds, “Barbara looked beautiful in short hair too. I had an
option to have her with short hair in Kites, but in our industry actresses
generally don’t have short hair. So later when she came to India, we did
some look tests with Barbara in short hair and also with hair extensions and
she looked even prettier in long hair.”
Thereon began the bald and beautiful tales of Kites!
