While it is much more than just apparent that Karan Malhotra is totally bowled over by Hrithik's professionalism as well as his inherent talent that has helped shape the film beautifully, what has also made 'Agneepath' further fiery (pun intended) is the presence of a certain Sanjay Dutt. Whether it was the first theatrical promo or the one that has been released recently, Dutt's towering image has made quite a few stand up and notice. In fact in recent times he is one of the few antagonists who has been given as much screen time and the promotional space as the leading man.

Smiles Karan Malhotra, "See, somewhere down the line I knew that Kancha's character would get such reactions. Also because of the kind of look that Sanjay is bearing in this film, the feedback was bound to be massive. So far you have seen perhaps just a minute of him and still his look and personality have come across as so powerful. Wait for the entire movie because in that he will come across as someone totally unimaginable."

"He is not Dutt in the film, he is the character Kaancha and the kind of work that went into creating that personality of his, I am overwhelmed though not surprised that people are lapping it up", he continues, "Dutt is just the perfect villain for any hero to conquer and in 'Agneepath' it would be no different."

We would love to see that when we check out the film on 26th January.
