Rakesh Roshan and Hrithik Roshan to hold a screening of ‘Kaabil’ for Rajinikanth

Producer Rakesh Roshan and actor Hrithik Roshan will be holding one of the first screenings of their upcoming film, ‘Kaabil’ for superstar Rajinikanth.

The Thalaiva had praised the trailer of the Hrithik-starrer, speaking of which Rakesh said, “I am elated by Rajini’s praise. If you remember Hrithik’s first film ‘Bhagawan Dada’ was with Rajini. Hrithik was only 12 when he faced the camera with the legend.”

Roshan senior further added, “That an iconic superstar like Rajini has complimented Hrithik makes me a very proud father. We’ve been friends for years, although we do not get the time to speak regularly. But real friends don’t have to meet or talk every day. Rajini and I respect one another immensely and this will never change. The last time Rajini spoke to me was during the time of release of ‘Krissh’ when he had complimented both me and Hrithik for the film.”

He further confirmed that a screening of the film will be held for Rajinikanth. “We are going to show ‘Kaabil’ to Rajini very soon,” he said.

‘Kaabil’ will also be releasing in Tamil and Telugu on the same day as its Hindi release, on January 25, 2017.
