Just one word - OUTSTANDING! This version of Ageepath is not a remake of the original, and will win hearts on his accord. I personally prefer this version purely because of the directional masterclass put together by Karan Malhotra - this guy will go a long way. I felt the original Agneepath, was a little overhyped, however won it's cult status purely because of Amitabh and Mithun's performances.

Hrithik is the star of this show, and no one can take this away from him. He oozes quality, excels in every scene, and is surely in line for another award. The way he plays his part with emotion, passion and intensity is a lesson to others in the industry - he is the perfect hero for this film. Sanjay Dutt has rewritten the rule book for villains. His look and potrayal of Kancha will go a long way, and this is by far one of his best films. Rishi is a revelation, and in scene stealer in many of his scenes. Priyanka plays her small role to perfect. The kid who plays Vijay is also going to do very well.

Overall this film is fantastic. No one expected it do so well, but the pure power of Hrithik, Sanjay and Rishi will take this films to new heights.
