Karan Johar was running short of new stories. Karan Malhotra wanted to make his mark in the industry. They went through old DVDs of some cult classics and came up with Mukul Anand's Agneepath. It seems. But with a strong creative team. The writers are puzzled, particularly with the dialogues, to write a new Ramayan or a Mahabharata. And end up scripting the old tale of "baap ka badla." We are convinced that it is not a remake but adaptation. Bollywood remains Bollywood. Cliched remains cliched.
