Agneepath

If you haven’t seen the 2012 Agneepath trailer, then you have definitely missed out on why Agneepath is creating such hype.

However, unlike the 1990 version, Agneepath 2012 packs a lot more hard core action, blood, gore, drama and deadly dialogues.

Following on the same story line as the original movie, producer Karan Johar has admitted to making a few changes to the plot. One of the more obvious ones is the fact that Hrithik Roshan will be an underdog rising up against a villain unlike Amitabh who was anything but. In fact, Hrithik’s character is younger, more driven and proactive, and at the end of the promo he comes across as ruthlessly cold and in control while speaking to Kancha Cheena the Villian played by Sanjay Dutt. Hrithik also plays the role in his own style, making it clear that he is not trying to ape Amitabh Bachchan from the original film.

The movie will also see no groovy moves from the dance master. Why? Because according to the director, the movie has no place for Hrithik to show his awesome dancing skills. I know it sounds absurd, but Producer Karan Johar did elaborate saying, Hrithik Roshan would not do any dance routines in the movie because it was against his character, that of Vijay Dinanath Chauhan. Playing an intense role of a person that uses his silence as his strength to control his anger till the right time, it makes it absurd that the character would get up and suddenly start dancing.

Though he may be right, we know it’s going to be hard for Hrithik Roshan’s fans to not see him dancing. But overall, the movie is sure to capture and hold the attention of the viewer. With Sanjay Dutt’s shaven head and menacing smile which literally gives you Goosebumps, Hrithik Roshan’s action packed moves and intense performance as an angry man with so much of vengeance in his eyes and Kareena Kapoor’s Chikni Chameli as the icing on the cake, Agneepath’s promos have captured everyone and is going to keep them captivated till the movie release in January of 2012. In fact, with the promos alone, the film has created its own box office market space.

When the item number Chikni Chameli was released, it did raise the expectation levels of the audiences however with the release of the second trailer today (the 24^th of December 2011) the expectations form the file have been raised along with everyone’s curiosity. And Agneepath is now one of the much awaited movies for the first quarter of the New Year 2012 and we are sure the movie will be a superhit

One thing we noticed upon seeing the promos and posters was the overbearing figure of Sanjay Dutt as the villain Kancha that stands out in the posters. But Hrithik Roshan has absolutely no qualms about this, in fact, when asked if he feels overshadowed in the film due to Sanjay Dutt, he said “Look at his size…I think anyone, be it me or anyone else will get overshadowed. It is not possible that you will not get overshadowed by Sanjay’s presence…”

What spirit, no wonder we love the guy.
