In the case of a Rajinikanth-starrer, only when you sell tickets at Rs 400-500, will you be able to see profits, provided the film opens to positive word-of-mouth. РІР‚СљThe opening weekend is very important to recover as much as investment as possible. If the tickets are sold at Rs 120, itРІР‚в„ўs impossible to recover the investment in the first few days,РІР‚Сњ he said, and added that the opening weekend is very crucial for big-ticket films. In order to make profits, the film should collect over Rs 30 crore. РІР‚СљThe Chengalpet area rights of РІР‚ВKabaliРІР‚в„ў were bought for a whopping Rs 18 crore.

ItРІР‚в„ўs once in two or three years, you get a Thalaivar (RajinikanthРІР‚в„ўs) film. However, it had the potential to be a great Rajani film.РІР‚СљWe donРІР‚в„ўt have issues with the ticket prices. Finally, Kabali is not the usual Rajani film. Other hand, Dhansika plays Kabali's long lost daughter who is also a contract killer. She and Rajani share a nice sweet old world charm and chemistry.

Apte who is 30 years old gets into the skin and with ease plays the role of 50 plus year old. Radhika Apte is mind blowing as his long lost wife. Apart from Rajani, the saving grace is his women co-stars.

Chao especially looks funny wear purple suits with funny expressions. Winston Chao and Kishore are neither menacing nor convincing and end up as any normal cartoonish villains thanks to the poor writing. Another problem with Kabali is the villain. Plus there is a long and meaningless climax and a twist in the end which I felt was not required. Both scenes are very high on emotional quotient. So there are two beautiful scenes where Kabali meets his daughter for the 1st time and when he meets his wife after 25 years. But unlike the Godfather series, Ranjith adds too much of emotions leaving us confused. One of the main reasons Godfather II is considered one of the best gangster films is because it tells both the stories which such ease without losing its core - the life of Michael Corelone and the revenge story of Vito Corelone. But on the other hand, he is also depicting a husband having visions about his wife and searching for her. He also highlights the racial tension between the Indians and Malaysians. There are times where Ranjith is telling us about the underworld in Malaysia run by Chinese and Indians. However, the issue I found with Kabali is writer director is not clear whether he should make a gangster or a serious drama film. And this is good part of the film because it great to see Rajni the actor and not Rajni the star. Rajni finally plays his age, a 60 year old gangster, out of jail in search of his missing wife and seeking revenge for those who destroyed his life. Nor it shows Rajni as a young ageless man romancing some heroine one third his age.

It doesn't have any of Rajni's tricks which have made him famous. Kabali is not a usual Rajni film to begin with.
