Just watched the Movie Kaabil....Had heard great reviews about it..Bollywood fraternity went gaga over this Hrithik Roshan starrer and praising the performances and direction to the Sky...I think Kaabil has been the most applauded movie in the Bollywood circle for a long time once can remember.....Let me share my View on the Movie......
The story of Kaabil is not novelty stuff for sure...We have had multiple revenge sagas..The unique twist of the revenge of a blind man has also been explored in a movie called Aankhen...This movie starred biggies like Amitabh Bachchan, Akshay Kumar, Paresh Rawal and Arjun Rampal ........So i don't think revenge dramas are seldom watched for story...because stories are known..Revenge dramas are watched for the Intensity...It needs to choke the audience......It should make the audience a part of that revenge....a revenge drama that doesn't make you throw one or 2 punches in the air or hurling out some expletives on the villain,has not done its job..A revenge drama that doesn't make you clap for the hero and that doesn't make you cry or choke, for me,hasn't done its job well.....a revenge drama needs to make you atleast for a second think of all the wrongs that happened with you and how you reacted...It has to trigger the raw nerve of anger to flush out all those emotions and then you get the audience involved
Kaabil, unfortunately doesn't tick any of those boxes....I need to admit that Hrithik Roshan has definitely put his life and soul into this...This is probably hrithiks most nuanced and powerful performance but he is clearly let down by Sanjay Guptas direction and a week screenplay ..Yami Gautam is a revelation and one wonders why we don't see much of her on the big screen..She is a naturally gifted Performer whom the cameras just love.....
Ronit Roy, who towers the screen with his personality has been wasted in a role that doesn't offer much for his prowess.....I need to find out about the actors who played the Cops..They seem to have done a pretty decent job....The characters of the main villains Rohit and Ronit Roy haven't had any dimension or depth and hence end up looking just plain bad guys who don't strike venom or fear on the screen....I feel that week characterisation has been one of the big flaws along with a week screenplay.....
The characters seemed to lack any depth and definition......Didnt sound convincing enough.....Sanjay Gupta is known for Films high on style and low in content...Kaabil is slightly better than his average directorial work thanks to the earnesty that Hristhik put in his role...It would have been great had Roshan Senior taken on the directors hat and not left it to Sanjay Gupta....
A career best performance by Hrithik and Yami but poor direction, weak characterisation and average screenplay.....
