The ensemble cast includes Rasika Dugal, Sanjay Mishra, Saurabh Dwivedi, Zakir Hussain, and Manish Chaudhari, each adding depth to this intense investigative drama. Kartavya’s announcement has generated palpable excitement on social media, with fans eager to see Saif Ali Khan’s return to the crime thriller genre. An official release date is expected to be announced soon.

As anticipation builds, viewers can look forward to Kartavya adding a fresh edge to Netflix’s lineup in May, with more updates promised by the team in the coming days.
