Hrithik Roshan’s Kaabil is releasing on January 25. So is Shah Rukh Khan-starrer Raaes. But the producer and director of Hrithik’s film are confident because when it comes to January, HR has a 100 per cent success ratio.

January just works!
Roshan’s films have always worked in January. He has had just two releases in the first month of the year previously and both have been blockbusters. It began with his first film Kaho Naa...Pyaar Hai, which released on January 14, 2000. It became the highest-grossing film of that year and Hrithik scooped up the Best Debut and Best Actor awards that year. Twelve years later, Hrithik saw another January release — Agneepath — the first Rs 100 crore film that year.

The going is good
Next year, Kaabil will release on January 25. The trailers have been well-received and Hrithik has luck on his side. The film is a family entertainer. It’s a complete package and has everything his fans look forward to in his films. Although Hrithik plays a blind man in the film, he will romance, dance, fight and even make you cry.
