‘Kaabil’ box-office collection Day 1: Hrithik Roshan film makes a strong start

Hrithik Roshan’s ambitious film ‘Kaabil’ released on January 25 amidst much hype and hoopla. While Hrithik fans couldn’t wait to catch the movie and made a beeline for it, what made it all the more interesting was that the film was clashing at the box-office with Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘Raees’. Trade analysts were waiting with bated breath to see how the two movies fare amidst the clash.

Well, the figures are finally out.

Hrithik and Yami Gautam-starrer ‘Kaabil’ has collected Rs 10.43 crore on Day One. That’s a very encouraging number, especially considering that the film released on a weekday and did not enjoy the benefit of a holiday. Considering Thursday is a holiday on account of Republic Day, one can expect the numbers to shoot up dramatically. Combine that with the weekend and the film is expected to rake in the moolah.
What works in the film’s favour is that the Rakesh Roshan production has garnered positive reviews. Hrithik’s portrayal of a visually-impaired man in particular has won appreciation across all quarters.
