Finally! A Netflix release from Red Chillies that isn't just about big city glamour. 'Bhakshak' was brilliant, so I have high hopes from Pulkit. Sanjay Mishra and Zakir Hussain in the cast is a guaranteed win. Rasika Dugal is also brilliant. I'm tired of action movies where the hero is invincible; this 'grey area' exploration sounds promising. Maa chhapar maar ke baithegi for this one! 🍿

I'm genuinely curious about this. Usually, these 'duty vs family' plots are super predictable in Indian cinema—the cop has a crisis, then suddenly solves everything.

Let's see if it's more than just a typical masala entertainer.

I just hope the female characters have more to do than be 'the family' worried about the male lead. Rasika Dugal is too talented for a glorified cameo. Let's see if Kartavya has the 'authenticity' they
