there is error..
Show output:
Starting grubx64.efi
Using load options ''

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Those are GRUB errors, not rEFInd errors. They most likely indicate damage to the filesystem that holds Kali, or possibly some other partition referenced in the GRUB configuration. The solution is likely to involve using an emergency system and filesystem repair tools like fsck. This topic is complex enough, and far enough from the subject of rEFInd, that you'd do well to post your question elsewhere, such as on a Kali forum. (In theory, the solution should be similar for any Linux distributions, but most forums are rather insular, so you might not get help on an Ubuntu or Fedora forum, for example.) In a worst-case scenario, this might indicate a very bad hard disk failure, in which case you might have to replace the disk and kiss your data goodbye; however, with any luck it won't be that bad. Even in the case of a disk failure, you may be able to recover some of your data with a tool like PhotoRec; but this assumes the disk failure is still restricted to a few sectors. It could also be that the hardware is OK and that the failure is caused by a bug or random "bit rot" in a critical filesystem data structure.
