Resurrecting his former allegiances with his own gang, he begins a relentless war against a notorious Malaysian crime syndicate named Gang 43, and soon begins to reflect on the many shadows of his fractured past and impending future. An aged don, Kabaleeswaran (Kabali for short), returns from jail in the elusive confines of Malaysia, after having wrongfully suffered 25 years in a false sentence for starting a massacre at a Hindu temple that resulted in the unexpected death of his wife, Kumudhavalli. Ranjith explores a different narrative path in his fledgling career, revitalizing the gangster crime genre at large. Fresh off the success of two lauded independent releases, director Pa.
For those unacquainted with the man, his name and the surprisingly legendary status that comes with 36 years of beloved, admired servitude to Indian cinema as a whole is of something new to discover. For those who know of Superstar Rajinikanth’s screen presence, it’s an intellectual, eclectic treat and then some. Much has been said in the diasporas of Southern India about the hugely anticipated gangster film, KABALI.
Release Date: 9th August 2016 (DIGITAL RELEASE) If despite its harmonic delights, you can’t help but nag for more complexity in composition.
If you value emotional depth and narrative intelligence, this international effort from Santhosh Narayanan brief but consistently rewarding.
