Trivia
The British Board of Film Classification gave a 15 rating to the movie for strong bloody violence and drug misuse, which means the movie is restricted to audiences 15 and above. The Australian Classification also gave a restricted MA15+ rating for strong violence. But on a highly surprising note, the Central Board of Film Certification (Indian certification board) which is infamous for its rather stringent rules, cleared the movie with a U certificate, meaning the movie is suitable for all age groups.

Finally we got a movie in which we can see rajinikanth's acting talent, after a decade. What a performance!!. Definitely it is not only for usual rajinikanth's fans but for every one to cherish his acting skills. Bold attempt by rajini 👍 worth watching. In the midst of common genre movies, it attempts to tell about a group of suppressed people in a very subtle way along with a personal story. Also shows the women empowered roles which is also very rare in tamil movies. And only in rajini movies everyone get good acting space despite him in screen. But his screen presence is so huge that he overtakes everyone with ease. A good attempt and may have some flaws but strikes the right nerve and tells about our little known tamil people outside India. Looking for more films of rajini with good acting presence like this one. It is sure that women will be willing to watch kabali on screen despite a gangster movie is a success for both the superstar and director.
