According to the latest buzz, Hrithik has found a confidante in good friend Karan Johar and told him that he is torn between Barbara and Susanne.

As a result he has become quite a rebel and a party animal, something which he was never before as one of his co-star says, "Hrithik used to be one of the most balanced people around but suddenly one hears that he and his cronies, which include several well-known names, party almost every night and some of the things that go on there are alarming. Everyone in the industry knows about this, but no one will talk."

Reports also say that Hrithik has made it quite clear to directors close to him that he would be willing to green-light projects that required him to star with Barbara but no one has taken the bait yet, as they all wait to see the reaction to Kites.
