Saif Ali Khan says Shah Rukh Khan liked Kartavya enough to want a big release for it, offering a rare glimpse into the response behind the forthcoming drama.
In an exclusive conversation with IANS, Saif said Khan "really liked the film" and that "he intended to get a huge release for it" once the movie was complete. The remarks point to backing from Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan under their home banner, Red Chillies Entertainment, at a moment when the film is moving toward release.
Kartavya is described as a forthcoming drama, and Saif is set to appear as a cop in it. That role gives the project a familiar crowd-pleasing frame, but the bigger significance today is the scale of support it appears to have from one of Hindi cinema’s most visible producing teams.
The backing matters because it comes with a built-in level of trust. Shah Rukh Khan’s reaction, as relayed by Saif, suggests the film cleared an internal test that often decides how strongly a project is positioned once it is finished.
There is still a question hanging over the film that fans will watch closely: how widely will it actually be released? Saif has already said Shah Rukh Khan wanted a huge rollout, and that single detail may shape how Kartavya is received when it reaches audiences.
