The film was produced by Yash Johar under his banner Dharma Productions. The title was taken from a poem of the same name called Agneepath which was penned by Harivansh Rai Bachchan, Amitabh's father, and which is recited at the beginning of the movie and creates a thematic link that continues through the movie, both literally and metaphorically. Agneepath has grown into a strong cult film over the years. Amitabh Bachchan received his first National Film Award for Best Actor at the 38th National Film Awards for his performance. At the 36th Filmfare Awards, Mithun Chakraborty and Rohini Hattangadi won the Best Supporting Actor and the Best Supporting Actress respectively.
Plot
Much-loved village schoolmaster Dinanath Chavan (Alok Nath) strongly opposes the plans of Kancha Cheena, an underworld don (Danny Denzongpa) and his band of gangsters to set up a base for heroin smuggling. After being discredited in a set-up scandal by Kancha and the village landlord Dinkar Rao (Goga Kapoor), Dinanath is lynched by the manipulated villagers to death, and his family is evicted and made destitute, much to Cheena's advantage. Swearing revenge over his father's murder and the attempted rape of his mother Suhasini Chavan (Rohini Hattangadi) gone unpunished, and with a burning desire to clear his father's name, his son Vijju / Vijay Deenanath Chauhan (Amitabh Bachchan) takes on the responsibilities of caring for his mother and sister Siksha (Neelam) that, by a strange twist of fate, cause him to descend into the murky underbelly of the Mumbai Underworld. He is taken by gangsters Hasmukh (Arvind Rathod), Usman Bhai (Avtar Gill), and Anna Shetty (Deepak Shirke) under their wing. Working his way up the ladder, Vijay grows up attaining notoriety as an underworld kingpin.
Vijay Deenanath Chauhan is warned by police commissioner M.S. Gaitonde (Vikram Gokhale), (who, while critical of him, nurtures a sympathetic spot for him), of a possible assassination attempt on his life by his former bosses after he refuses to co-operate with their drug-smuggling operations. Vijay meets Kaali Gawde (Mithun Chakraborty), a fun-loving coconut vendor who becomes his friend and confidant. He also falls in love with Mary Matthew (Madhavi), a nurse who works at Dr. D'Mello's clinic. Vijay's enemies conspire to kill him and his family, but he manages to survive and fight back. He also learns that Kancha Cheena is still alive and operating from Mandwa, where he has turned the villagers into slaves and addicts.
Vijay decides to return to Mandwa and confront Kancha Cheena once and for all. He rallies the villagers against Kancha and his men, exposing their crimes and atrocities. He also reveals his true identity as Dinanath's son and challenges Kancha to a duel. In a climactic battle, Vijay kills Kancha by hanging him from a tree, thus avenging his father's death and liberating Mandwa from his tyranny. However, Vijay himself is mortally wounded in the process and dies in his mother's arms, asking her forgiveness for his sins.

Reception
The film was released on 16 February 1990 and received mixed reviews from critics. The film was praised for its performances, especially by Amitabh Bachchan, Mithun Chakraborty and Danny Denzongpa, but was criticized for its excessive violence and melodrama. The film, despite being the 4th highest-grosser of 1990, had collections way below its high budget, and thus, the film was unsuccessful at the box-office.
