Agneepath - Review

I eagerly awaited the release of Agneepath, which is the remake of the Bollywood film with the same title. Hrithik roshan, performs the lead role and reprises the character of One and only Amitab Bachan. I thought that 'new Agneepath's plot would almost be the same as the 'Original Agneepath' but some of the factors such as the story narration, Background, Renovated Characters etc. are different. Compared to 'Big B's Agneepath', 'Hrithik's Agneepath' is fairly made and the response is good. Sanjay Dutt, Rishi Kapoor, Zareena wahab, Priyanka Chopra have performed well in the movie directed by Karan malhotra.

 

Story

 

Vijay Dhinanath Chauhan (Hrithik roshan) S/O Dhinanath Chauhan, a highly respected school teacher of Island village 'Mandwa', tries to dissuade the villagers from giving away their land to Kancha Cheena (Sanjay Dutt) who plans to start a drug mafia. Then Kancha puts a false blame on Dhinanath Chauhan and Kancha executes him in public view by hanging him from a tree. This forces him and his mother to flee from Mandwa and they reach Mumbai. After 15 years Vijay tries to avenge his father. It is the main plot of this film. 

 

New Agneepath is an adaptation of the Original but is depicted in a new style with Dark Background which is very apt for this film because New agneepath included deadly revenge sequences. First half is good and it contains movie's Vital sequences especially 'The flashback scene of Vijay Dhinanath Chauhan's life' and second half contains some lag scenes however the climax presents the usual factors with some sequences giving an adrenalin rush.

 

Hrithik plays the role of  'Vijay Dhinanath Chauhan' and he performs fairly and his style is 'Attractive and Graceful'. The positive factor of this film is the 'Villain - Kancha' done by Sanjay Dutt and he performs amazingly the role is renovated in a new route from the Original acclaimed role done by Actor Dany Denzongpa. And other main characters done by Rishi kapoor and Zareena wahab. Rishi kapoor's performance is new for viewers because he plays a Villainous character and Zareena wahab nicely handled the 'Mother role of Vijay Dhinanath Chauhan'. Priyanka chopra's performance is not quotable in this film. The drawback of this film is 'Original Agneepath's characters' connects perfectly but in the case of 'New Agneepath' it consists of imperfection.

 

Karan malhotra, an assistant director of Karan johar directs the 'New Agneepath' and  he has done the adapted screenplay along with illa bedi. Karan malhotra, makes a good entry in to Bollywood, he has done a superb job, and Piyush Misra inscribes good and inimitable Dialogues. There are many applaud factors in technical side specially Cinematography, Editing, Art direction, Sound design, Thrills and Background score. Cinematography done by Kiran Deohans and Ravi.K.Chandran, are  amazing and appetizing shots and it helps the dark background of this film. Art direction or Production Design, done by One and Only Sabu Cyril proves to be at his best in a lot of sequences like theVillage, Tree and Cave etc. and Editing done by Akiv Ali Trimm append the sequences nicely. Sound design and Thrills done by Stephen Gomes and Abbas Ali Moghul is appreciable. Ajay-Atul's Back ground score is a Pivot Point and they accurately blend. Whole technical crew proved their hallmarks in this film.

 

Overall, 'Agneepath' is an Advanced, Superb and Different rendering from 'Original'

 

Grade:  'Agneepath' is Hair-rising and gives an Adrenalin Rush.

 

Rating: 4/5
