Agneepath (English: Path of Fire) is a 2012 Indian action drama film produced by Hiroo Yash Johar and Karan Johar under the banner of Dharma Productions. It is a retelling of the 1990 film of the same name
and was directed by Johar's former assistant Karan Malhotra. The
screenplay was written by Malhotra along with Ila Dutta Bedi. Johar pays
tribute to his father, Yash Johar, the producer of the original, through the film. The music of the film was composed by Ajay-Atul, with lyrics written by Amitabh Bhattacharya.
Though publicized as a remake, the film borrows only the basic plot of
the original, while making the characters and incidents completely
different. The film's title was taken from a poem of the same name
called 'Agneepath' penned by Harivansh Rai Bachchan,
Amitabh's father, which is recited at the beginning of the movie and
creates a thematic link that continues through the movie, particularly
in the climax, both literally and metaphorically.
