The Vijay Dinanath Chauhan of the original Agneepath, with surma in his eyes and a gruffier voice, is an act difficult to beat. And the new Vijay (Hrithik) is wise enough not to compete and that endears you to him, along with Hrithik's trademark sincerity and the art of putting his soul into a character. This new Vijay is outwardly tough and intense but ready tears waiting to stream down his blue green eyes, unlike the seemingly more in control, more menacing Amitabh Bachchan. The new Vijay is his own person, almost just as effective if I may dare say so.

Vijay is the son of an upright teacher in Mandwa. The father is killed ceremoniously by the drug lord Kancha (Sanjay Dutt) and Vijay wants to take revenge. He manages to earn the trust of the drugpin of Mumbai Rauf Lala (Rishi Kapoor) to get to Kancha. Kali (Priyanka Chopra) is his childhood sweetheart.
