Marking Marflix Pictures' streaming debut, Siddharth Anand and Mamta Anand share, With Jewel Thief, we wanted to bring the scale and excitement of big-screen action to Netflix. It's stylish, thrilling, and packed with entertainment - everything audiences love about heist dramas. Saif and Jaideep are both powerhouse performers and it was an amazing experience working with the duo and really capturing their energy on camera. Not only that, but reuniting with Saif after almost 18 years was nostalgic, and we really are happy to be working together once more. Kunal Kapoor and Nikita Dutta are both fantastic actors and really prove their mettle as their characters, only adding to the film's thrill and intrigue. Directed by Kookie Gulati and Robbie Grewal, this film will give audiences a thrilling rollercoaster ride. Finally, Netflix provides the perfect global platform for this high-octane film, and we are excited for audiences worldwide to experience this adrenaline-fueled ride on April 25.
Talking about the film coming to Netflix, Ruchikaa Kapoor Sheikh, Director, Original Films, Netflix India shared her excitement, saying, Jewel Thief - The Heist Begins is an adrenaline-fueled heist film from the house of Siddharth Anand, who brings his signature style to this fan-favorite genre, creating a home blockbuster experience for Netflix audiences. With Saif Ali Khan and Jaideep Ahlawat locked in a battle of wits, this heist action film will keep you on the edge. Films that entertain and excite are at the heart of what we do. Jewel Thief - The Heist Begins reinforces our commitment to delivering larger-than-life entertainment that captivates, engages, and excites audiences worldwide."
Speaking about the film Saif Ali Khan shared, "Reuniting with Sid Anand has always felt like coming home - he knows how to blend action, style, and storytelling in a way thats truly special. With Jewel Thief, weve pushed the envelope and had a blast doing it. Sharing the screen with Jaideep Ahlawat, who brings such depth and unpredictability, made the experience even more exciting. I cant wait for audiences to join us on this thrilling ride on Netflix."
Jaideep Ahlawat, who plays the relentless mafia boss, added, "A film that is so interesting, challenging, and as exciting as any project or role of mine. Its the experience of getting into a new universe with a bunch of people that are as excited as you to deliver the best. The heist film was something I always wanted to explore, and what better than collaborating with the best co-star and makers like Saif and Siddharth? We had a blast on set, teamwork determines how a film comes to life. About the character, all I can say is it's new, intense, and an unexplored territory for me, but such a well-crafted character like all of the others in the film. As actors, we all were so secure and invested in our craft that we could help each other do better and that ultimately uplifts the narrative of a story we are trying to present in the best possible way. Rest I want the audience to experience this universe we have created with Jewel Thief, and I am excited to see the reactions as the action unfolds on Netflix on April 25."
Set against the breathtaking backdrops of Budapest, Istanbul, and Mumbai, this gripping heist drama is a pulse-pounding game of wits, deception, and action.
Get ready for a showdown like never before - streaming only on Netflix from April 25!
