Director: Sanjay Gupta

A lot has been written about the clash between ‘Kaabil’ and
the highly anticipated Shah Rukh Khan starrer ‘Raees’, but it must be said that
director Sanjay Gupta and producer Rakesh Roshan have made a film which will
touch your heart. Rich on content, ‘Kaabil’ would have done wonders if it would
have been released with any other film as well.
Rohan (Hrithik Roshan), a blind man and a dubbing artist by
profession, meets Supriya, (Yami Gautam) for an arranged marriage proposal. She
is an independent woman who is blind but a pianist by profession. The two click
and fall in love and eventually get married.
Their lives turn upside down when
a local goon Amit Shelar (Rohit Roy) rapes Supriya along with his friend.
Situation becomes even worse when Supriya commits suicide and leaves Rohan
helpless. Soon after, Rohan seeks help of cop Chaube (Narendra Jha) to get
justice.
Madhav Shelar (Rohit Roy), enters to rescue his younger
brother Amit and then starts the revenge drive of Rohan. What happens next is
predictable but yet thrilling to watch.
When the film was announced with the name of Sanjay Gupta as
a director, the reviewer was sceptical, considering his previous works,
‘Jazbaa’ being the most recent example, but Sanjay Gupta totally stands out
with ‘Kaabil’. He made an honest attempt to hold the grip of the film till the
last frame.
The film has no extraordinary plot but the treatment is so
captivating that the film will give you tears of joy while you leave the
theatres. ‘Kaabil’ is probably the finest film of director Sanjay Gupta.
Kudos to producer Rakesh Roshan for remaining successful in
making a film which is high on emotions. He is one of those makers in the
industry who makes films for both the masses and the classes, the ‘Koi Mil
Gaya’ franchise being the obvious example.
The plot of the film will bring back memories of some films,
one being 'Badlapur' which was also an intriguing revenge saga. And a scene of
Rohit Roy dragging a steel rod will remind you of a scene in Aamir Khan's
'Ghajini'.
Hrithik Roshan proved that if given a brilliant script that
has a scope to perform, he will nail it and that's what he has done with
‘Kaabil’.
He played a role of a blind man with so much conviction that the
character looks real. His helplessness of not being able to get justice on his
wife's murder is touching. Guess he gives his finest performances when he plays
a physically challenged role. ‘Koi Mil Gaya’ and ‘Guzaarish’ were exceptionally
good.
The very beautiful Yami Gautam just steals the show. Her
chemistry with Hrithik is just like a steaming mug of coffee.
From the
beginning of the film, you will be in awe of their brewing love story. Narendra
Jha and Girish Kulkarni are good as investigative tough cops. Suresh Menon is
good in his small role.
Special mentions to the villianous Roy brothers who will
make you feel disgusted with their evil acts. The two are just a visual treat
on screen. Music by Rajesh Roshan is melodious and songs aren't an interruption
in the flow of the story.
The highpoint of ‘Kaabil’ is that, the plot of the film is
very okay but the screenplay is intelligently played out. The film won’t bore
you even for a second. ‘Kaabil’ is overwhelming, magical and a feel good film.
The film is one of the most interesting revenge sagas made in the recent times.
