Amitabh Bachchan has been in many well-known blockbusters that are considered classics. One of the classic movies, though, was a huge commercial bust. This movie, which broke box office records, was based on a cult Hollywood blockbuster. However, when the film came out, Amitabh Bachchan’s enraged followers bashed it and destroyed the theatre seats in response. The superstar’s performance earned him the Best Actor National Award despite the film’s failure, and it went on to become one of the most acclaimed gangster dramas in the years that followed. Yes, we’re talking about none other than Agneepath!
A young child who wants to beat Kancha (Danny Denzongpa), who killed his father years ago, is at the centre of the movie. The story of revenge stays in the hearts of viewers, which adds to its essence. The film also stars Mithun Chakraborty, Tinnu Anand, Neelam Kothari, Danny Denzongpa, and Archana Puran Singh in addition to Amitabh Bachchan. Following Agneepath’s dialogues, which are treasured by moviegoers of all ages, the compelling story with powerful performers and an engaging plot became even more unforgettable.
Amitabh Bachchan shared a fascinating story about his movie Agneepath in the Diwali special episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati 16. His character, Vijay Dinanath Chauhan, became iconic as the movie became a tremendous smash. Speaking to director Raj and DK as well as guest Varun Dhawan, the actor disclosed that he had used a lot of modulation in his voice for the role. He felt compelled to dub it again in his natural voice within a day after the audience rejected it.
Varun Dhawan asked Amitabh Bachchan how he modified his voice for Vijay’s role in Agneepath, Big B revealed, “I’ll tell you a fact, some things are unplanned. On the first day of shooting, I still hadn’t figured out how to portray him. I was in the makeup room and called Mukul Anand and suggested giving Vijay a distinct, deep voice. He agreed, and that’s how we decided on it.”
“When the movie released, the producer called to say there was mayhem in theatres. Audiences were tearing up seats and telling the sound department, ‘This doesn’t sound like Amitabh; fix the sound system!’ So, to address it, I had to re-dub the whole film in my normal voice. But that initial voice was very impactful, ” the veteran star went on to share.
To the surprise of both the audience and the special guests, he also narrated the full Agneepath monologue throughout the broadcast.
