Actor
Hrithik
Roshan,
who
has
always
hated
acting
in
remake
films,
has
revealed
the
reason
behind
accepting
the
remake
version
of
the
1990
film
Agneepath.
The
Bollywood
star
says
that
the
new
version
of
Agneepath
is
not
a
remake,
but
is
a
different
world.
It
has
a
brand
new
script.
Hrithik
Roshan
is
playing
Vijay
Deenanath
Chauhan,
which
was
reprised
by
Amitabh
Bachchan
in
the
original
film.
The
B-Town
star
launched
first
teaser
of
the
film
Agneepath
on
Monday,
August
29.
Later,
addressing
the
media,
he
revealed
his
excitement
about
the
film.
"I
am
full
of
gratitude
to
be
part
of
this
project," the
PTI
quotes
him
as
saying.
The
actor
added,
“I
was
never
interested
in
doing
remakes
and
I
don't
think
I
will
ever
do.
When
Karan
Malhotra
came
to
Spain
to
narrate
the
script,
in
a
matter
of
ten
minutes,
he
made
me
forget
about
my
pre-conceived
notions,
all
symbolic
visuals
that
I
had
about
the
original
film...everything
vanished
and
everything
seemed
new.
I
reacted
to
it
as
a
brand
new
script."
Hrithik
gushed
that
it
was
director
Karan
Malhotra's
narration
that
made
him
accept
the
film
Agneepath.
He
said
"When
I
was
first
approached
by
Karan
I
was
like
I
should
not
go
down
that
route
at
all.
He
has
a
different
way
of
narrating
the
story.
He
makes
those
background
sounds
while
narrating...there
was
audio,
visual.
Half
way
through
the
narration
I
felt
I
am
an
actor
and
I
want
to
go
by
instincts,
whatever
my
mind
says...I
am
a
slave
of
my
instincts.
He
showed
me
the
completely
new
world.
It
is
not
a
remake...it
is
a
different
world."
