Seeking revenge is always a difficult task. The level of difficulty rises when your enemy is powerful and rich. And if you are blind, it is impossible. But Kaabil shows that nothing is impossible. Hell hath no fury like a blind man scorned is the mantra of this film. Obviously a film like this will work if it's convincing enough. Thankfully Kaabil is, well not quite fully, but makes a definite impact!
The story of the movie: Rohan(Hrithik Roshan) meets Supriya(Yami Gautam) and its love at first ‘sight’ for both despite both being blind. They get married but soon tragedy strikes. Rohan tries to get justice but to no avail. This is when he decides to take charge, despite his handicap.
Kaabil has a lovely first scene which neatly describes Rohan's life. Rohan's first meeting with Supriya and how their romance blossom is sure to bring a smile on one's face. At the same time the villains get introduced in the beginning itself. The sequence where the lives of Rohan and Sue turn upside down is shocking and also slightly disturbing. But it is required and nothing is done for the heck of it. The intermission point is applause worthy. Post interval the film gets better as Rohan goes on a rampage but all done with planning. The film ends with a solid punch and also with some touching moments.
On the flipside, the film has some unconvincing moments especially in the revenge portions. The item song is needlessly added. A crucial scene in second half is supposed to be clap worthy but one can't help and wonder what's so heroic about it. Also the use of flashback didn't really make the desired impact in the finale.
