Kaabil Reviews: Incredible from celebs and critics

Hrithik Roshan’s Kaabil is carrying incredible pre-release reports. From every screening of the film, the reports that are coming out – both within the industry and on social media websites – is excellent. We’ve spoken to many and almost all of them have had only good things to say about the film.

Now, pre-release reviews should never be trusted in the social media era, we’ve seen several films that were called classics prior to release, but turned out to be unwatchable for the audience in theatres. People who are invited for special screenings will never write it off, but the confidence of the Roshans can be sensed from the fact that they have shown the film to a variety of people.

In the first part of the campaign, the promos of the film hadn’t really worked and internally not many had their hopes high on Kaabil doing well at the box office.

But the experience and brilliance of Rakesh Roshan has resulted in a turnaround at the right time for ‘Kaabil’. The move to show exhibitors parts of the film was a masterstroke, it was to convince them that the film deserved a proper showcasing against a big film like ‘Raees’ which had incredible promos and a bigger star.

And now with less than 36 hours to go for the film’s release, ‘Kaabil’ is gearing up to surprise at the box office this extended Republic Day weekend. While the other team is on a marketing blitzkrieg with Shah Rukh Khan’s train journey from Mumbai to Delhi, team Kaabil which has had a low-key promotional campaign – is showing the film to different people to create the much needed pre-release positivity.

Check out some of the many reviews of Kaabil below, it’s unanimous so far, but will the audience love the film as much as the people in the industry have? That’s going to be the big question, as Kaabil hits theatres on 25th January.
