Hrithik’s Agneepath: Shooting begins!

The shooting of Hrithik Roshan’s Agneepath remake, produced by Karan Johar, began in Mumbai on Tuesday.

While Tuesday’s shoot only included the supporting actors, lead actors Hrithik and Priyanka Chopra are expected to join the crew later this month. Hrithik plays the legendary role of Vijay Dinanath Chauhan, which won Amitabh Bachchan a National Award, a couple of decades back in 1991.

The original released in 1990 and although it didn’t do too well at the box office back then, the film is still remembered as one of Bachchan’s greatest performances ever. With humongous expectations and inevitable comparisons, it would be very interesting to see how Hrithik performs in arguably his most challenging role to date.

The Agneepath remake is directed by Karan Malhotra (the original was directed by Mukul Anand) and is expected to release by the end of 2011.
