Rakesh Roshan not to watch SRK's 'Raees' says, 'I will watch 'Kaabil' again'

Noted filmmaker Rakesh Roshan says he would prefer to watch his son Hrithik Roshan starrer "Kaabil" again instead of watching Shah Rukh Khans "Raees".

Earlier both the films were slated to hit the cinema houses on January 26, but now they will be releasing tomorrow, paving way for the first biggest box office clash of 2017.

Ask Sr Roshan if he will see "Raees", he replies, "I will see Kaabil again."

Well-known actress Shabana Azmi has also praised Hrithiks performance in the romantic-drama film which is helmed by Sanjay Gupta.

And Rakesh Roshan, who has produced the film, echoes similar views.

"Hrithik has given a wonderful performance. He has set the path for all the new actors to see. I am proud of my son," Roshan said at a screening last night here.

"Kaabil" has Hrithik and Yami Gautam in lead, while "Raees" helmed by Rahul Dholakia features SRK and Mahira Khan.

It is produced by Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwanis Excel Entertainment.
