“Yes, of course, anyone who is interested in dance and music will know about Indian movies. It has a lot of music and dance and colours in them,” Speer said in an e-mail interaction.
Praising Hrithik after seeing him “Kites”, the Hollywood director said: “I liked Hrithik Roshan as an actor and dancer in the Indian movie ‘Kites’ and have seen him dancing in ‘Dhoom 2′.”
