Agneepath and Chikni Chameli

Remake of Agneepath is released.
Haven't yet watched the movie. But I have good feeling for the movie and expecting that it is atleast one time watch. Well the reviews aren't that bad.
 
I am no great fan of old Agneepath. Hardly remember the movie as a whole. Only thing that I remember about it is the way Amitabh said "Vijay Deenanath Chauhan, Haai".
Rest I was not even impressed by Amitabh in it. His overall getup in the movie did not matched the image of Amitabh I had in my mind at that time .
 Further the voice was horrible. One thing I liked till then about Amitabh was his dialogue delivery and voice quality. Both  were absent from the movie.

Recently I heard a joke: If the director so desperately wanted that kind of voice in Agneepath, he should have taken Rani Mukherjee and not Amitabh.I just wondered when I read Amitabh received National Award for that role.  I don't even remember the female cast in the movie forget talking about heir acting.



Rohini Hattangadi playing Vijay's mother reminded me of her role as Kasturba Gandhi in the movie "Gandhi".
 

I know Danny normally play villian well in his movies. But hardly remember his Kancha china in Agneepath


Coming to new version of Agneepath, most promising thing I found about it is Sanjay Dutt's get up. He looks scary, hope he has acted well enough to make one feel scary.

Another interesting piece is Rishi Kapoor's role. I am expecting some good shades of villianness in his role.

Overall Hrithik Roshan appears good. He looks angry, but is he angry enough?
Action sequence or the environment and sound track during Ganapati procession did make an impression while watching the trailor.
I hope Hrithik has worked on his dialogue delievery which otherwise I don't find effective. I am just wondering and curious how spelled the magic words "Vijay Deenanath Chauhan" . Did he add "Haai" in the end like Amitabh.

Fortunate that there is no counter role of Mithun or Neelam in this version.

I heard a lot about "Chikni Chameli". Today checked the song on Youtube. But it was a total disappointment. Its just the same marathi famous song "Kombdi Palali"!  There is no fun in listening this song, infact it is lot troubling to ears since we already have  enjoyed "Kombdi Palali".


It was a total appointment. Plus I just wondered why Hrithik is so angry while listening to Katrina singing "Chikni Chameli". I guess even he did not liked how she brutely dissected the famous "Kombdi Palali" ending up with hopeless "Chikni Chameli".

Except for this song, I am really looking forward to this new version of Agneepath.
