We earlier reported about Hrithik Roshan , Yami Gautam to star together in upcoming film ' Kaabil ' to be directed by Sanjay Gupta . This film is produced by Rakesh Roshan . The movie will be filmed in three months at a stretch from April to June.

' Kaabil ' will hit the screens on January 26, 2017, as told by the producer Rakesh Roshan . He stated "All the major release dates this year are already taken. So we've reserved January 26, 2017 as the release date for Kaabil . We are in no hurry release our film." The film does not have patriotic flavour to gel with Republic Day mood, said the makers.

Talking about this, Rakesh Roshan said " Sanjay Gupta narrated a story written by Vijay Mishra which both Hrithik Roshan and I liked. It is something Hrithik has not done before. It is in the thriller genre. But it's different, and yet mainstream, somewhat like the films that I direct which are massy and yet removed from the expected. And very different from whatever has been attempted so far in genre."

Rakesh Roshan talked about star cast of the film by saying "We've Yami Gautam paired with Hrithik. The film also stars Ronit Roy , Sonu Sood and Girish Kulkarni . My brother Rajesh Roshan will do the music, as usual. The cinematography is by Sudeep Chatterjee and the sound design is by Resul Pookutty ".
