== Plot ==&lt;br /&gt;
Rohan Bhatnagar ([[Hrithik Roshan]]) is a kind, happy young man who has been blind since birth and works as a [[voice-over]] artist for a living. Through friends, he meets Supriya Sharma ([[Yami Gautam]]), a working woman who is also blind, but proudly independent. The two fall in love and get married.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One night, on their way back home after dining out, they are interrupted by Amit Shellar ([[Rohit Roy]]), a local goon and younger brother of Madhavrao Shellar ([[Ronit Roy]]), a well-known politician. He and his friend Wasim, drunkenly misbehave with the couple, enraging Rohan, and they have a heated exchange.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The next morning while Rohan is at work, Amit and Wasim sneak into the house and [[gang rape]] Supriya. A horrified Rohan immediately calls the police; Officer Chaubey advises him to get his wife medically examined in 24 hours to prove the assault. While Rohan and Supriya are on their way to the clinic, they are kidnapped by Shellar&amp;#039;s men and held captive for 36 hours. After being set free, Rohan and Supriya are criticised by police for the delay in getting Supriya clinically examined, and both are accused of being liars. Heartbroken, they return home. Supriya attempts to live normally but Rohan becomes silent and introspective, which hurts her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One morning, Rohan returns early from work to apologize to Supriya for not being as supportive as he should have, only to find her corpse, hanging from the ceiling fan. Madhavrao visits Rohan and reveals that his brother Amit raped Supriya not once but twice. Rohan finds Supriya&amp;#039;s [[braille]] note, which ascertains that Amit had raped her a second time; this second assault led to her suicide. Shattered, Rohan changes. He implies to Officer Chaubey that he will avenge his wife&amp;#039;s death, challenging that Chaubey will know who did it but will be able to do nothing about it, just like he did nothing about Supriya&amp;#039;s rape.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rohan uses his voice modulating skills to lure the culprits to places that Rohan knows well. First, he tricks Wasim and hangs him, leaving Amit&amp;#039;s handkerchief behind to frame Amit. He then lures Amit to the warehouse where he and Supriya were held captive for 36 hours. He finds Amit by scent, tying him down to be burned alive in an explosion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Officer Chaubey suspects Rohan for Amit and Wasim&amp;#039;s murders after remembering his challenge, and puts him under [[house arrest]]. It is revealed that Chaubey knew Amit raped Supriya but did nothing after Madhavrao bribed him. Rohan gets past police with the help of his friend, and calls Madhavrao to a building under construction that was to be Rohan and Supriya&amp;#039;s new home. There, Rohan kills him and makes it look like a suicide. Rohan later relates the story to Chaubey: he made it look as if Amit killed Wasim, then Madhavrao committed suicide due to the pain of Amit&amp;#039;s death. With no evidence against Rohan, a blind man, Chaubey stands helpless. Rohan, his revenge complete, scatters Supriya&amp;#039;s ashes at sea.&lt;br /&gt;

== Critical reception ==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Taran Adarsh]] of [[Bollywood Hungama]] gave the movie 4 out of 5 stars and wrote, &amp;quot;On the whole, KAABIL is gripping, gut-wrenching and is likely to stay with you for a long time.&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=http://www.bollywoodhungama.com/movie/kaabil/critic-review/ |title=Kaabil movie review |website=Bollywood Hungama |access-date=30 January 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[The Indian Express]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039; gave the movie 1.5 out of 5 and said, &amp;quot;Hrithik does all the heavy lifting and remains the only bright spot in this dispirited mess of a movie. He still has the moves. What he needs is a plot.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=http://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/movie-review/kaabil-movie-review-hrithik-roshan-yami-gautam-rakesh-roshan-star-rating-4489671/ |title=Kaabil movie review: Hrithik Roshan has all the moves, only if he had a plot |website=The Indian Express |access-date=27 January 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Meena Iyer of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Times of India]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039; gave the film a rating of 4/5 stars, noting that the movie seemed to be inspired by the 1989 movie &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Blind Fury]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and the 2014 Korean movie &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Broken (2014 film)|Broken]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/hindi/movie-reviews/kaabil/movie-review/56749675.cms |title=Kaabil Movie Review |website=Times of India |access-date=27 January 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Iyer praised Roshan&amp;#039;s performance as his &amp;quot;all-time best&amp;quot;, and felt that the character Rohan was &amp;quot;vulnerable as a lover and menacing as a killing-machine&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sarita A. Tanwar of &amp;quot;[[Daily News and Analysis]]&amp;quot; gave the rating of 4/5 stars stating &amp;quot; Kaabil is old-school, emotional and forceful.

Writing for &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[The Hindu]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, [[Namrata Joshi]] gave the film 2 out of 5 and called it a &amp;quot;predictable revenge and retribution saga that offers nothing new other than the visually impaired protagonists.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=http://www.thehindu.com/entertainment/movies/Kaabil-leaching-boredom/article17092860.ece1 |title=Kaabil: leaching boredom |website=The Hindu |access-date=27 January 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=https://www.thequint.com/entertainment/2017/01/25/critics-verdict-film-reviews-of-kaabil-hrithik-roshan-yami-gautam-rakesh-roshan-sanjay-gupta-movie-review |title=Critics&amp;#039; Verdict: &amp;#039;Kaabil&amp;#039; Is Barely Rescued By Hrithik&amp;#039;s Act |website=The Quint |access-date=25 January 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

His perfectly nuanced performance is the reason you’ll enjoy the thrills of Kaabil.&amp;quot; and gave the movie 3 stars out of 5.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=http://www.filmfare.com/news/review-kaabil-18386.html |title=Kaabil movie review: Hrithik Roshan elevates this old school revenge saga |website=Filmfare |access-date=25 January 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bollywood Bubble gave the movie a rating of 4 out of 5 and said, &amp;quot;‘Kaabil’ will present you a far bitter truth. It&amp;#039;ll draw a very uncomfortable, shrewd reality wherein the ones in greater need of support are the ones often thrown on the edge, laughed at. It&amp;#039;ll show you a world in desperate need of more compassion, more kindness.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=https://www.bollywoodbubble.com/movies/reviews/kaabil-movie-review-intense-romantic-thriller-heart-right-place/ |title=&amp;#039;Kaabil&amp;#039; movie review: This intense romantic thriller has its heart at the right place |website=Bollywood Bubble |access-date=24 January 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Joginder Tuteja of Movie Talkies gave the rating of 4/5 stars and said, &amp;quot;Rakesh Roshan has ensured that Kaabil turns out to be a commercial film for the audiences that has all the right ingredients in place and that too in the right proportions. It must have been quite a challenge to have three creative brains (Sanjay, Hrithik and himself) to blend seamlessly and deliver a product which is in just the right synch. That happens with Kaabil and that is the right reason why the final outcome keeps you glued on the screen right till the end.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=http://www.movietalkies.com/movies/reviews/22289/kaabil |title=Kaabil Review : This Is Hrithik Roshan&amp;#039;s Vendetta Story Served Hot |website=MovieTalkies.com |access-date=24 January 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Business Standard]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039; criticized the movie&amp;#039;s plot and direction: &amp;quot;I’m not sure what’s more infuriating about this film – whether it’s regressive or stupid. Or whether it’s regressive and stupid and joyless and monotonous and silly and pointless. In fact, let’s call Kaabil for what it is: a B-movie with well-known actors. Worse, it’s exacerbated by shoddy CG, fake earnestness and a needless item number.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=http://www.business-standard.com/article/current-affairs/movie-review-kaabil-is-stupid-regressive-and-joyless-117012700235_1.html |title=Movie review: Kaabil is stupid, regressive and joyless |website=Business Standard |access-date=27 January 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=https://www.thequint.com/entertainment/2017/01/25/movie-review-kaabil-not-tareef-ke-kaabil-hrithik-roshan-cry-act-dance |title=Movie Review: Kaabil Not &amp;#039;Tareef Ke Kaabil&amp;#039; |website=The Quint |access-date=26 January 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Udita Jhunjhunwala from &amp;quot;[[First Post]]&amp;quot; gave the rating of 3/5 and wrote, &amp;quot;If you are able to look past many of these niggles it&amp;#039;s thank to Hrithik Roshan&amp;#039;s committed performance which keeps you rooting for his Rohan all the way.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=http://www.firstpost.com/entertainment/kaabil-movie-review-nothing-to-celebrate-beyond-hrithiks-commendable-performance-3219844.html |title=Kaabil movie review: Hrithik Roshan elevates this old school revenge saga |website=First Post |access-date=25 January 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sukanya Varma from &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Rediff.com]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039; gave the film 2.5 on 5, and felt that &amp;quot;Kaabil serves nothing beyond an unabashed platform to vaunt a seething Hrithik, sentimental Hrithik, snarky Hrithik, sly Hrithik or spry Hrithik...&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=http://www.rediff.com/movies/report/kaabil-review-its-all-about-hrithik/20170125.htm |title=Kaabil Movie Review |website=Filmfare.com |access-date=25 January 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Saibal Chaterjee from [[NDTV]] gave the movie 2.5 out of 5, calling the film &amp;quot;...paisa vasool ({{translation}} worth the money) fare, if not more.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=http://movies.ndtv.com/movie-reviews/kaabil-movie-review-hrithik-roshan-is-convincing-in-a-paisa-vasool-film-3005 |title=Kaabil Movie Review: Hrithik Roshan Is Convincing In A Paisa Vasool Film |website=NDTV |access-date=27 January 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mike McCahill from &amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[The Guardian]]&amp;#039;&amp;#039; gave the film 2 out of 5, and remarked that &amp;quot;Sanjay Gupta&amp;#039;s tale of a blind dubbing artist avenging the ghost of his wife is the sort of nonsense the Indian film industry stopped churning out 20 years ago.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=https://www.theguardian.com/film/2017/jan/25/kaabil-review-hrithik-roshan-sanjay-gupta-preposterous-melodrama |title=Kaabil review – preposterous Hrithik Roshan melodrama stuck in Bollywood&amp;#039;s past |website=The Guardian |access-date=27 January 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
