Actor Hrithik Roshan is gearing up for the release of his upcoming film ‘Kaabil’. The trailer of the flick looked promising with the star stealing the limelight. Many celebrities applauded Hrithik’s performance and the recent star to join the bandwagon is none other than superstar Rajinikanth.

According to the latest report doing rounds, when Hrithik’s father Rakesh Roshan called the superstar on his birthday, Thalaiva informed him about his likeness for ‘Kaabil’. Rajinikanth stated that he had watched the Tamil, Hindi and Telugu trailers of the upcoming movie and was curiously waiting for its release.

The South superstar also called the film’s music praiseworthy.

Ahead of the film’s release, this is indeed great news for the ‘Mohenjo Daro’ star who has really worked hard for the flick.

In ‘Kaabil’, Hrithik is sharing the screen space for the first time with Yami Gautam. Both the actors are playing the role of visually impaired people in the flick. The recently released second trailer of the flick showed the star in ‘Revenge’ mode.

Directed by Sanjay Gupta, ‘Kaabil’ is all set to hit the screens on January 25 with Shah Rukh Khan’s ‘Raees’. The trailers of the former proved that the competition between the two is really going to be tough.

On a related note, ‘Raees’ features Pakistani actress Mahira Khan opposite King Khan. Actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui is also playing the pivotal role in the film.
