Our verdict
Agneepath is a committed Hindi action-crime drama that leans on Hrithik Roshan's Vijay and Sanjay Dutt's Kancha Cheena to carry its revenge story. Karan Malhotra's remake runs 174 minutes, so it asks for patience, but the genre and cast give it a clear identity. It is a solid pick for viewers who like their dramas fiery and confrontational.
