Prince, what if the opening is less than 10 crs ? I mean if its around 7-8 crs also will it be possible to still be a hit ?

That will be too low I think...BM managed to build as it was Christmas period...but on wom still will be hit. Looking at the advance reports opening day could be around 12crrs.

If more fantastic reviews keeps coming then in evening shows it might do little better.

It looks like a small budget product, the budget cannot exceed 50crs I assume😕

I'm guessing around 30 cr. Some of the reviews said the CGI looks tacky, film was shot entirely in Mumbai, Hrithik is in-house actor and Yami is no superstar. Depends on how much it was sold to the distributors.

But screen count is only 2100-2200, so to do 12 cr it needs 60% occupancy which on a working day with a clash looks impossible...maybe 8-9 cr.

Budget is not very high from what I read. Papa Roshan already more than recovered his investment. But he sold the movie to distributors for 50 crores so for the distributors to break even it has to make 75 - 85 crores I think. Above 100 it'll be a clean hit.

On the whole, KAABIL is gripping, gut-wrenching and is likely to stay with you for a long time. Now that DANGAL has almost exhausted its run at the ticket windows, the box-office is quiet and subdued and KAABIL should have no difficulty filling seats at cineplexes, despite a strong opponent releasing alongside. Rich in merits, this film has the power and potential to emerge a success story at the box-office. Highly recommended!.

Revenge is a dish best served blind is the message Kaabil serves up. Drawing inspiration from Hollywood's Blind Fury (1989) with Rutger Hauer in the lead and even borrowing shades of the Korean super hit, Broken (2014), Sanjay Gupta gives you a Bollywood adaptation that is entertaining and effective. The highlight of the film is Hrithik's bravura performance. He is vulnerable as a lover and menacing as a killing-machine. Half a star in the movie-rating is reserved for his all-time best performance here.

When you walk into Kaabil, you know it's about a blind man seeking revenge for his girl, but still it surprises you. You know what's coming and still it's impossible to resist. Kaabil beautifully combines sentiment and action.Kaabil is old-school, emotional and forceful. And an absolute must for all Hrithik Roshan fans. And if you aren't his fan, you might feel differently after this film.

Kaabil is Hrithik Roshans swan song and deservedly so becomes his career best performance. Watch and marvel at what can easily be termed as the finest performance to come out of Bollywood in a long time. Kaabil is dark and violent. There is very little scope for relief and humor in this script. That can become tiresome after a while.

But if you were to keep your eyes glued to the screen and follow the blind man's graphite walking stick right down to the picture's climax, I'm fairly certain you won't be disappointed. Yeah, it is, for the most part, kaabil-e-tareef

Hrithik Roshan's Kaabil performance will go down as his career best, here's why...

With Kaabil, Hrithik Roshan has surpassed his poetic performance in Guzaarish.

There are performances where an actor outdoes himself and then there are performances that have a lasting impression on you days after you have walked out of the theatre. Hrithik Roshan's Kaabil falls into both these categories. I watched Hrithik's Kaabil last night and came out of the theatre with utmost respect for his craft. Forget the clash, forget the trade experts and their numerical spins on how much these films are expected to make, forget any conspiracy theory you might have read about one being better than the other, because these things won't matter after you have watched Kaabil.

Hrithik like Aamir has been a perfectionist. Aamir's obsession with his craft is popular while Hrithik's love for his work hasn't been that public. But those who have worked or been around him will narrate tales of how he's all for that perfect shot and take. It doesn't matter what terrain, climate or odd hour he's working in, Hritik is all for let's go for another one.

With Kaabil he has surpassed his poetic performance in Guzaarish, which in my opinion was his most challenging. It isn't so much about playing a blind man that impresses you. He isn't the first visually impaired character we have seen on screen. But his understanding of the world without light, his honesty in even showing the greys without evoking any sense of sympathy or feeling sorry for him because he's blind is what wins your heart. Hrithiks character doesn't ask for your empathy, neither does he make you cry because of his challenges. In fact the scenes where you might reach out for a tissue are the ones that don't have Rohan holding a stick or combatting his visual challenge. The most emotional scenes in Kaabil are the moments of love between Hrithik and Yami Gautam.

Kaabil becomes Hrithik's best performance because he doesn't worry about the outer appearance and dives deep within to find the grace to play Rohan with utmost sincerity. Be it his opening scene where he's seen making breakfast or numerous times in the course of the film where he's seen struggling to even make his way from one place to another. He's outstanding and at the top of his game.

Kaabil will go down in the cinematic legacy as a performance to remember and reckon with. Take a bow Hrithik Roshan, you have just upped yourself at your own game! Kudos.

This one deserves to be on the first page👍🏼 Hrithik is brilliant !
