The purchase of rights deal (of reportedly Rs. 150 crore) between Rakesh Roshan and BIG Pictures for Roshan produced Kites has been touted as the biggest film deal Bollywood has ever witnessed. Now aiming to make a bigger impact in the global market, BIG Pictures is gearing up to market the Hrithik Roshan - Barbara Mori starrer films to the international market at the upcoming Cannes Film Festival.

But it is not just Kites that we are aiming to market. We are also planning to market our big art house film slate."
