影片讲述了女主人公娜娜(安娜·卡里娜 Anna Karina饰)如何从一名普通售货员走上卖淫道路的悲情一生。娜娜厌倦了售货员的生活,想要成为一名演员,可命运却让她陷入了出卖肉体的色情深渊。她越是深入生命的深刻意义,越是怀疑生活的本来面目。命运辗转,就在她终于遇见她的爱人 时,命运又再一次跟她开了场玩笑,死在了皮条客的枪下。看似凌乱毫无关联的章节,充满哲理如呓语般的台词,为了“拯救灵魂而出卖肉体”么?影片抛掷给我们的又岂止是这一个问题。
Saif Ali Khan, who will be seen playing a cop, shared his excitement, “Kartavya, which is really great, produced by Shah Rukh's company Red Chillies Entertainment, is going to come out soon. It's a lovely piece by director Pulkit, and really happy that too is coming out on Netflix.”
The film also features an ensemble cast including Rasika Duggal, Sanjay Mishra, Saurabh Dwivedi, Zakir Hussain, and Manish Chaudhari.
Team Kartavya shared - “Kartavya marks the second collaboration between Red Chillies Entertainment, Netflix, and director Pulkit, following Bhakshak. As a team, we are committed to telling stories that push creative boundaries and resonate deeply, and Kartavya is a powerful reflection of that vision. Set in the heartland, the film explores the complex intersections of law, family, truth, and duty, with Saif delivering remarkable depth and intensity in a morally layered character. We are delighted to partner with Netflix on this journey and look forward to audiences across the world experiencing this gripping and compelling narrative.”
With Kartavya, Red Chillies Entertainment adds another title to its growing slate of content created for global audiences, aligning with Netflix’s vision of showcasing powerful Indian stories to viewers worldwide.
