Bollywood
movie
Agneepath,
which
features
Hrithik
Roshan,
Priyanka
Chopra
and
Sanjay
Dutt
in
the
leads,
is
scheduled
to
release
on
the
Republic
day,
January
26,
2012.
The
remake
of
1990
cult
classic
was
to
release
on
January
13,
but
producer
Karan
Johar
has
deferred
its
release
date
to
cash
in
on
the
long
weekend.
Talking
to
the
PTI,
Karan
Johar
said,
“Agneepath
is
definitely
a
quintessential
Indian
Film.
The
original
Agneepath
released
in
1990
acquired
a
cult
status,
we
are
hoping
for
a
super-hit
status
with
this
one
and
the
four-day
weekend
should
help
us
achieve
our
goal."
The
first
trailer,
which
was
released
in
Mumbai
a
few
weeks
ago,
has
received
very
good
reactions.
Especially,
Sanjay
Dutt's
bald
look
has
created
lot
of
curiosity
among
the
movie
buffs.
The
producer
has
planned
to
unveil
the
next
trailer
in
October-November.
Meanwhile,
Karan
Johar
is
hoping
to
seal
the
distributor
and
satellite
deals
soon.
However,
it
should
be
recalled
here
that
Aamir
Khan's
Dhuan
and
Ajay
Devgn's
Tezz
have
already
been
announced
to
hit
the
screens
on
the
Republic
Day,
January
26.
Both
actors
are
reportedly
sending
feelers
to
each
other
to
postpone
the
release.
Now,
producer
Karan
Johar
is
joining
their
fight
by
scheduling
the
release
of
Agneepath
on
the
same
day.
