Did Kareena Kapoor Khan & Parineeti Chopra rejected Kaabil?

According to rumours, role of lead lady in film was t a very meaty one and  female lead died before interval itself. Also, as story revolved around a blind man's revenge for his wife’s rape and murder, re was t much for female lead to do and actors like Kareena and Parineeti did t want such less screen time in movie.

Hence this was reason stars like Kareena Kapoor Khan and Parineeti Chopra turned script down and it went to Yami Gautam.

Yami Gautam played character of a strong, independent Bengali woman Ashima in Shoojit Sircar's 2012 film Vicky Dor. Post Vicky Dor, she worked in Prabhudheva's Action Jackson alongside Ajay Devgn but her role hardly made a difference. Later, in Sriram Raghavan's 2015 thriller Badlapur, Yami played lead opposite Varun Dhawan and it was hardly more than an extended cameo. During an interview, Sanam Re actor had said that she was extremely excited and felt lucky to work with Hrithik.
