Who Killed Kabali?

Well, it’s not about ‘Kabali’ climax we are talking about. We are discussing here on what went wrong with ‘Kabali’ getting overall a mixed talk on day one. Telugu audience and critics have outright panned ‘Kabali’ as obsolete and a film nowhere stood up to Rajini’s super stardom. 

Right from releasing the teaser/trailer stuff to planning poster promotions, makers have highly publicized ‘Kabali’ as action entertainer something on the lines of ‘Basha.’ However, the teaser has done huge and irreparable damage building the hype. Agreed, all of Rajinikanth movies release amidst such hype but the case with ‘Kabali’ is different.

With a stylish Kabali character design, director Ranjith Pa miserably failed in executing the project with commercial ingredients. He hasn't got any idea on what audience expect from Rajini. In turn, his realistic treatment and unfavorable screenplay with a weak climax disappointed Telugu audience to the core. With back to back failures in ‘Vikrama Simha, Lingaa’ and now ‘Kabali,’ the going will be really tough for our ageing Super Star.
