    Hrithik is back!!!!!!

    Awesome movie....Hrithik is back.A smart film well acted by Hrithik ,Yami,Ronit,Rohit.But,the highlight of the film is Hrithik's bravura performance. He is vulnerable as a lover and menacing as a killing- machine. It is Hrithik's film from the word go. He is there in almost every scene, and he seems to be in control of the proceedings. As a person who has suffered and is holding himself back from crying, he has done fairly well. Yami Gautam, like Ronit Roy, is already typecast as a wife/lover who leaves her partner midway. Hrithik Roshan and Sanjay Gupta consciously don't project Rohan Bhatnagar as someone you should pity. This works and you realise this is the story of an underdog you want to win. But you need more than a few 'Kamzor mat samajh' kind of dialogues to completely root for Rohan. Barring the regular approach to filmmaking, Kaabil embellishes Hrithik credential as a fine action hero.

    A must watch!!!!!!!!

    Go For Kaabil and It will be Worth It for Sure

    A great round of applause for Hrithik "Kaabil" Roshan. From the very beginning of the movie it was a very very emotional movie in fact in few of the scenes tears came to my eyes. Apart from the fabulous acting by Hrithik, the story was good the music was beautiful and Yami Gautam a true heartthrob. Though a bit fictitious plot but some of the things shown in the movie truly reveals Current scenario of our country and has a strong social message. Till the very end of the movie I liked in fact loved the movie. In the Bollywood I would say Hrithik is truly evolving his movies. I just do not want to lengthen the review any further, just watch it for yourself. According to me this is the first movie of 2017 which I loved absolutely and will surely watch it again.

    Kaabil Stands for HRITHIK ROSHAN

    Kaabil has a Predictable Plot with an Entertaining Screenplay.

    The best part of the movie is the Romantic Drama and the Conviction of both the lead actors as Blind Persons. Background Scores and Music adds the Flavor to Kaabil's Entertainment Quotient.

    Kaabil is start to finish Hrithik Roshan's Movie and after watching the movie its hard to Imagine anyone else in that Role.

    In that Sense its one of the BEST of HR's film career.

    Watch it for The HRITHIK ROSHAN Only.

    P.S: haters should stay away from this movie. Are you listening Ms. Queen ?!

    HRITHIK, he is not just an actor, he is emotion with excellence

    Lets begin with the story, the story is outstanding and very gripping,also the major fact is that, this is unpredictable with huge amounts of twist. Then cinematography is the main plus point of the movie, the director and the whole kaabil team work really hard, and the result is the movie is so logical. You can't even raise a drawback against this movie. Now comes to Hrithik Roshan, in a word , he is "brilliant" , the culminating point of brilliance and purity come as a result of Hrithik Roshan. He is blind but yet he plays with his eyes, so engaging fact this is. Yami is as cute as polar beer, also acts very cleverly, ronit and rohit are awesome too. But the main fact is that this not a sanjay gupta masterpiece, Im damn sure that Rakesh Sir helps him a lot to deliver more promising atmosphere.

    Best of 2017

    I've probably seen Kaabil ten times now and still can say it's the best movie of 2017 hands down. Hrithik shines bright in this one, only slightly overshadowing the performances of Ronit Roy and Yami Gautam. The plot, storyline and execution by Sanjay Gupta take me back to some of the brilliance he had shown early in his career with Hamesha and Aatish. But Kaabil is the complete Package where some of his earlier works fell short, Kaabil makes up for and then some.

    • Trivia
      Hrithik prepared for his role in Kaabil extensively. It is reported that he locked himself in his house for four-five days to get into the skin of the character. He also moved around the house blindfolded so he could get himself acquainted with the body language of the blind people. He also invited a few blind people and keenly studied their mannerisms and expressions.

      Rohan Bhatnagar: [confronting Inspector Chaube, after the police failed to protect his wife] If your law system had helped me, I wouldn't have to do anything. Now, I'll have to...

      Inspector Chaubey: You think our eyes will be closed?

      Rohan Bhatnagar: Your eyes will be open, but you won't be able to see anything. Your ears will be open, but you won't be able to hear anything. You will try to speak, but you won't be able to say anything. And most importantly... you'll figure everything out, but you won't be able to explain it to anyone.
