Excellent pre-release reports. Better than expected response to advance booking. Low-key publicity and makers confident of content. #Kaabil

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.

Honest Review Of Kaabil! It Is Winning Hearts & Critics Can't Stop Appreciating The Brilliance

Overall, we can say that it is Hrithik's excellent performance which will keep audience hooked throughout. Yami complements him really well with her super and subtle performance.

Talking about technicalities, the action, direction, sounds, lights etc are just so perfect. Photographer Sudeep Chatterjee has tried his hands at some different angles, which will give you anxious moments. No doubt, you will find some difference or lack of continuity in between, but seeing the overall perfection, you will surely ignore it.

We can say that Hrithik's performance as a lover and as a revenge taker is just so AWESOME! Considering everything, it would not be wrong to give the movie a 4.5 star rating.

Let me start with Hrithik. He is flawless from the word go. He has this vulnerable, innocent side which he depicts so beautifully through his heartwarming smile and voice and this makes Rohan Bhatnagar so believable and endearing. There isn't a single scene where you feel he is actually an actor who is acting blind. There is a scene just before the interval where he gives a monologue which is BRILLIANT👍🏼The part where Rohan takes revenge are parts which he does extremely well ! There is something key about the way he traps them and boy, his acting and facial expressions are too good ! When he emotes, his facial muscles and features are so expressive, yet he suceeds in keeping that blank stare that a blind guy has❤️There are parts where he cries and he is so damn good in them like wow. I can go on and on but you just have to see it. You will fall in love with him again<3 Yes, his best performance ever for me. Honestly, I am so happy with his work as a fan that box office collections do not even matter now. I will be upset if he doesn't sweep all awards this year. He IS Rohan Bhatnagar.

Yami is gorgeous and has stunned me !😲I think she can do wonders if she does not choose crap scripts like Junooniyat or Sanam Re. I loved her dialogue delivery, and her chemistry with Hrithik is so adorable, so sweet, so real. I hope they do more films together😳

Ronit Roy is perfect. Rohit Roy makes you loathe him so much you want to kill him and when that had happened, everyone had clapped in the hall😆Girish Kulkarni is very good and the other policeman Chaubey is excellent. Urvashi's item number seemed a bit out of place but it was fun to watch her dance. Everyone is brilliant in the supporting cast.

SANJAY GUPTA. Honestly the repelling factor was him but I was shocked to see such good direction ! Might be the FilmKraft effect but nevertheless the direction was really good !😳

Overall I loved the film and Hrithik steals the whole damn show.

REVIEW (MIGHT HAVE SPOILERS)

This is my first review in this forum, i usually do not write reviews but this film has been something so staggering and had me bewildered that i wanted to write about the film. The film itself is a slow paced and predictable but in an amazing manner. I remember being disappointed watching Ghajni, because some how the hero's yearn and tragedy could not come off as believable as it comes in this film, and it was surprising.

There is never a single moment where you do not feel the love of Rohan, he lives Supriya through his eyes which cannot see, and the USP of the film is that the traumatizing effect of Hrithik's performance, it rings a bell in your heart, its brutal to see him losing Supriya, it is heinous to watch a blind and innocent girl being raped and the filming was equally merciless, the half filled theater was in complete silence during that portion of the film.

There is a scene where Rohan and the police head is confronting each other, some of the lines of Rohan catches the strings of your heart, it practically injects your mind with the grief that his wife was blind, he is blind and that has become their biggest weakness.

The action of the film is very tricky and smart too, well justified for a blind person, yes for a very choosy viewer it can give the impression of being too easy on eyes, but the general audience will find it gripping because we are fed with so much of mindless action in our films that we have this mindset to believe that action ad revenge can be done with physical violence only.

The message of this film is outright beautiful, it is not just about loving your wife or avenging the villains, its about overcoming your handicap and taking a stand against the injustice, the film teaches you that blind people are efficient and smart in their own way, their external world is dark but they never find it as their weakness.

Music of the film is okay, it does not affect the film anyway, the dance song was very nice. The back ground score deserves all the awards, some fantastic piece of work here.

Among the actors, Hrithik Roshan is wondrous, he was born to be Rohan, there is no over doing of the heavy dialogues too, the moist and bend eyes, shaky and stoned cold voice leaves you rooting for Rohan. Yami is beautiful and acts with honesty, there is no over shadowing of each other, the chemistry works like magic here.

4/5- A great movie to start the year with, i don't know how much money will it make, but this will be a cult film, it will stay with you for a long time

Just finished. Need time to digest and don't want to give any spoilers. It had a few weaknesses no doubt but I really really liked it! Hrithik was as good as everyone else has said and I really really liked Yami (she is so beautiful and was so natural - surprised she is not receiving more praise). So much of the dialogue made me really think and wonder about any significance of him calling her character Su and his obvious peacemaking with Sussanne - I wish I could see the original script pre Roshan editing... Overall so happy to be a HR fan right this instant. Please please let him keep working at some reasonable pace - he is so good when he's good ❤️ !

Watched Kaabil tonight. Theater was around 60% full.

I was not expecting much from the movie because of Sanjay Gupta as a director. Not a big fan of his movies and his movies are copied from some or the other English movies.

To be frank i loved this movie. What happened to Yami in this movie just was unbearable. In other words..audience got involved in the movie from get go. The way Hrithik plots revenge is simply superb. loved it. Movie has Mumbai flavor so yeah big thumbs up from me.

Now i am not a big fan of Hrithik regarding his acting. He hams a lot IMO. But in this movie he was awesome. He nailed Rohan Bhatnagar character. Simply mind blowing. I have to say this is one of the best performance in recent times. This has to be Hrithik's best performance. The range of emotions he showed without going overboard was fantastic.

Yami and Roy brothers did their job pretty well. Loved Ronit Roy as a politician. The scene between Hrithik and Ronit after his wifes death was brilliantly enacted.

Only drawback was the songs. I thought it slowed the movie pace. I loved item song by Urvashi.

One loophole in the movie:
Why did Zafar not accompany Hrithik and Yami when they went to police station was surprising.

I would give this movie 8/10.

#Kaabil can't be put into 140 characters. Experience the love, the pain and @iHrithik in his performance of a lifetime.

Hats off to every1 associated with this gem called #Kaabil for giving their best and making it a Cinema not 2 b missed @iHrithik at his best. It's @iHrithik 's performance that makes you believe that Rohan Bhatnagar can make an impossible into possible easily. Bossy, ekdum kadak, right from the beginning till the end. Background score and action takes #Kaabil to a different high.
