Kareena Kapoor’s first movie is Refugee in which she starred opposite debutant Abhishek Bachchan.
Though the film was a flop Kareena received a lot of praise for her acting while Abhishek received a lot of flak due to his comparison with Amitabh Bachchan.
After her walk-out from Kaho Naa…Pyaar Hai Kareena secured her role in Refugee on the request of her father Randhir Kapoor.
Director J.P Dutta shared a professional and personal bond with Randhir Kapoor as he had previously worked as an assistant to him in Dharam Karam.
Kareena opted for a raw, natural look with minimal or no makeup for Refugee which helped to portray the innocence and the natural beauty of her character.
Before finalising Abhishek Bachchan, director J.P Dutta had approached Salman Khan for the lead role but he immediately denied it.
Abhishek Bachchan regretted debuting with this film as his family was pushing him into films because of the financial troubles that they were facing.
J.P Dutta was working on a film with Abhishek which was to be produced by ABCL but the project never took-off due to the bankruptcy of ABCL.
Kareena Kapoor won the Filmfare Best Female Debut award for her portrayal of Nazneen Ahmed in the film.

In 1993, intense thrillers like Shah Rukh Khan’s Baazigar were outgrossed at the box office by Aankhen—a bizarre comedy starring two sets of identical twins and a pet monkey.
Directed by David Dhawan and starring Govinda, Chunky Panday, and Kader Khan, Aankhen remains one of the most defining Bollywood comedies of the 1990s. Here are some of the most interesting facts about this blockbuster:
The film's success was so monumental that it sparked remakes across regional cinema, including the Telugu hit Pokiri Raja. Aankhen didn't just win 1993; it created the template for the loud, colorful, mistaken-identity comedies that would dominate Bollywood for the next ten years.
I was reminded of the French film *Perfume: The Story of a Murderer*.
When I saw the protagonist born in the slums and beginning to learn perfume-making from a merchant, I thought it was an inspirational film; when the beautiful woman appeared, I expected a romance. Only after finishing it did I realize it was an art-house film.
Fate denied the protagonist a scent of his own but endowed him with an unparalleled sense of smell. Shunned from birth—even abandoned by his mother—he lived a life where those who cast him aside met with retribution; for every deprivation, he received a greater gift. His unique talent allowed him to gradually escape his wretched surroundings and pursue a better future, yet his inner obsession drove him to commit a series of murders.
The apple girl he encountered earlier didn't even know him; she was accidentally killed simply because her scent captivated him.
Then there was the nobleman's daughter; even after watching the film several times, I still don't understand what heinous act she committed to warrant such a fate—being hunted down to the ends of the earth just to be killed.
I feel this wasn't merely about his obsession with fragrance, but also a deep-seated jealousy toward the "perfect" girl. Lacking a scent of his own, he envied those who possessed their own unique aromas.
When he was captured, I expected a death sentence, yet the thousands of citizens and the judges in the square were utterly bewitched by his perfume. Hypnotized by the scent, they ceased to see Grenouille as a murderer, viewing him instead as a pure, flawless angel or deity, and even descended into a state of collective frenzy.
The protagonist's ultimate self-destruction was an act of pure self-indulgence. He had obtained everything he desired, yet he remained utterly alone—unloved and unaccepted for who he truly was. Without the perfume, he was once again nothing more than the infant abandoned
by the fishmonger, the cheap laborer passed from employer to employer; he was a nobody. Thus, he returned to a state of nothingness—as if he had never existed in this world at all.
Logic -
SS Rajamouli has the talent to present the most illogical things in a convincing manner. Don't ask why in a Rajamouli film because he goes for spectacle leaving logic trying to find its existence.
In Bahubali 1 Prabhas climbs mountains and dare devil stunts just because he finds a mask which he magically identifies as that of a woman. How? Why? Can you leave your family behind just to chase a girl you have identified through a mask which can belong to anyone in the damn world!!
Soldiers use Palm Trees as springboards in Bahubali. I didn't know trees could bent so much and are so flexible that it could be used for sending people high in the skies!!
The invincible potion that the two protagonists may have consumed in RRR that made them do gravity defying stuff without even a scratch. Also the scene where Rma Charan beats up a huge crowd alone with a single Lathi and also where Jr. NTR stops a bicycle in motion with bare hands.
Makkhi taking revenge from his killer through ingenious ways (very creative but so illogical). Why was the villain using bullets to kill a makkhi? He could have simply waited for 2–3 weeks and the makkhi would have d*ed a natural death.
The bicycle chase sequence in Maryada Ramanna. The man literally jumps across a cliff in his cycle!!
The Helicopter sequence in Magadheera. I don't know such a huge vehicle can jump so high in the air to crash into a helicopter!!
And so on and so forth. As his films increased on scale they reduced their dependency on logic. I am just pointing out these particular sequences because they are very popular as memes. Otherwise also his films lacks logic. They work on spectacle and vision.
Agneepath released in 2012 is an example of terrific remake of a cult classic Agneepath ( 1990 ). The movie was widely appreciated and became a box office gold.
While Bollywood has many successful movies as remake of Hollywood/Korean and even South India movies. Here old Amitabh Bachchan’s Agneepath ( 1990 ) was a popular movie, however, it did not work commercially at the time of release. Later, it became a cult classic movie on the tv and web. New Agneepath as a remake matched old movie and even was brilliant in few department of music/background score abd mighty negative characters. Old Agneepath had towering presence of great Amitabh Bachchan, memorable sequences. The new movie had acting genius of Hrithik and never tried to replicate Amitabh’s role.
Please find the characters of Agneepath movie:
Vijay Chouhan - an intense and emotional role portrayed by Hrithik. His only purpose in the movie was avenging death of his father, cruely killed by menacing Kancha Cheena. Despite being an action masala movie, Hrithik played a role of an underdog and was not a conventional mass hero. He manipulates, betrays, kills his enemies as the entire screenplay had dominating villains.
Sanjay Dutt as Kancha Cheena- Dutt played a daunting negative character and an Underworld gang leader. While Hrithik used expressions, Sanjay looked like a huge on screen muscular monster and utilised his massive body structure.
Rishi Kapoor as Rauf Lala- an interesting addition to the movie. Rishi Kapoor surprised everyone with his remarkable negative performance. He kept an aura of a strong criminal gang leader. His role became surprise package of the movie.
Priyanka Chopra played Kali and was an emotional relief in an intense movie of crime lords. Few comic moments, songs, emotional parts were shot on her.
Massive moments of the movie: Spoliers ahead***
3.Vijay killing Surya with & recreating Mr Bachchan’s iconic “Naam Vijay Chouhan” dialouge ( wonderful Deva Sri Ganesha song in the background ).
4.When Hrithik’s sister meets Hrithik/Vijay with Kali and for the first time in the movie, Vijay/Hrithik shown emotionally happy ( song - “mujhme kabhi baaki hain jindagi”)
5.Katrina in the Chikni chameli song with Hrithik and Sanjay.
6.Pre Climax battle of Vijay saving his sister and killing Rauf lala. The best action sequence of the movie.
7.Final battle where a battered and nearly finished Hrithik overcomes physically more mightier Kancha Cheena and fulfills his revenge.
Every department of the movie was excellent. Hrithik's acting/painful expressions, Sanjay Dutt’s demonic presence, Rishi Kapoor’s Rauf Lala aura. Others actors like Om Puri, Sachin Khedekar and others also did justice to their roles. Incredible music by Ajay Atul elevated the movie upto next level.
I recall when I watched this movie 1st day 1st show in 2012, I was thinking why Vijay has been shown an underdog, why he is not acting like Amitabh of old Agneepath and in more mass avatar. Later realized, that is how movie was conceived. A must watch remake.
Jai Hind!
Khakee movie climax was brilliant, well thought and surprising.
Rajkumar Santoshi directed Khakee with an ensemble cast was an amazing action movie with full of plot twists. Spoilers ahead**** with character arch of multiple prominent roles.
Amitabh Bachchan - played an ageing but ideal honest police DCP Anant Kumar. He has been asked to escort a terrorist safely to Mumbai and given a team for it.
Akshay Kumar - played a corrupt and a seasoned Inspector Shekhar. Akshay’s character has been shown strong, clever and handles every troubled situation with ease having a sharp brain.
Ajay Devgn- played ex cop turned menacing criminal. In the entire movie, he keeps on attacking the police party at regular intervals. Ajay earlier shown as a cunning cop, who was master in staging fake encounters.
Tushar Kapoor - plays a newbie in the police team. He has started learning the ways of working of police and shown as a honest guy.
Aishwarya Rai - plays a character, who has seen terrorist and also gets escorted by the police party of Amitabh, Akshay, Tushar. She also has a parallel love track with Akshay.
Atul Kulkarni - has been showcased as an accused terrorist in the movie.
Twists and plot changes:
1. First it was revealed that Atul’s character was an innocent and falsely accused as a terrorist.
2. Biggest twist- Akshay’s character, who was excellent in the movie’s journey, gets trapped by Aishwarya and Ajay. Aishwarya’s character was a mole and was planted by Ajay. She keeps on sharing vital info of police party to Devgan’s gang with pretending to be in a relationship with Akshay. In a suprise chain of events, Akshay gets betrayed and killed by Aishwarya and Ajay’s goon. One of the best twist and death scene of a central character. Akshay’s famous funny dialouge ( “neeli aankhe marwayengi mujhe" ) becomes reality in the movie.
Build up to the Climax:
Now it looked like Tushar and specially Amitabh will kill the duo. Ajay kills Aishwarya to save himself. Amitabh and Ajay had an intense final battle and finally Amitabh overpowers Ajay, still did not kill him and Ajay gets jail sentence.
Climax:
Tushar escorts Ajay to Jail in the police man. Ajay being confident unlocks him as his handcuff were tied with a mettalic block in the van. Ajay over powers the police guard, takes his gun and was about to shoot Tushar ( it looked like Tushar will die). Tushar shoots him, revealing it was all pre- planned. There was no bullet in the police man’s rifle. Tushar intentionally took the screws of the metal block so that over confident Ajay will try to escape.
A brilliant finish to a movie, where it looked like the villain will be killed by main protagonists Amitabh or Akshay, but shockingly killed by Tushar ( now shown as sharp policeman from a novice ). So, a shocking and satisfying climax where cunning Ajay - himself master of fake encounters gets killed in a fake encounter.
Jai Hind!
