Box Office: Hrithik Roshan gets his first release in China with ‘Kaabil’

It gained great applause when it released in 2017, and now news has it that the Hrithik Roshan and Yami Gautam starrer ‘Kaabil’, will finally be releasing in China.

With a large audience for Bollywood there, this will be the first time one of Roshan’s movies will be on their big screens.

Rakesh Roshan said, “Hrithik has always had an alluring persona in Bollywood, known for his good looks and attractive personality. So, we wanted him to play something more challenging, which is out of his comfort zone and Kaabil was the right opportunity that we stumbled upon where he plays a visually impaired man. With the kind of script we had in our hand, I knew this role will only further amplify Hrithik’s skills as an actor.”

Hrithik Roshan added, “Kaabil is extremely close to my heart and it is overwhelming to see it reach even more people now, with the impending release in China. I gave every bit of myself to this specially-abled character. The process of getting into the shoes of the character while fighting a created tragic situation was a powerful and agonizing feeling at the same time.”

B4U’s Film Division Head, Sunil Shah articulates, “Despite Kaabil releasing with other A-grade Bollywood movies, it topped the box office in terms of both revenue and reviews. I feel privileged to be associated with one of the most talented actors of the Indian film industry – Hrithik Roshan and the visionary producer of this era, Mr. Rakesh Roshan. I believe on the basis of a gripping story line, revered actors and a ‘Global Hit’ status, Kaabil can open up new avenues for Indian Cinema in China.”

The film will be released in China by B4U Motion Pictures on 5th June 2019.
