Kartavya Movie

KARTAVYA is the story of a man in a dilemma. Pawan (Saif Ali Khan) is an SHO at Jhamli Police Station and lives with his wife Varsha (Rasika Dugal), son Honey (Swastik Bhagat), brother Deepak (Saurabh Abrol) and father Harihar (Zakir Hussain). It’s his 40th birthday and he cuts a... cake in the presence of his friend-cum-cop Ashok (Sanjay Mishra) and a few other colleagues. Pawan and his team have been assigned the duty of ensuring the safety of eminent journalist Reema Dutta (Radhika Chauhan), who has arrived in Jhamli from Delhi. Pawan is escorting her when suddenly, two helmet-wearing men attack the convoy. Ashok gets injured while Reema is killed. One of the attackers, riding pillion, is killed by Pawan while the other escapes. Pawan comes under fire as the news of the journalist’s murder is picked up by the national media. Pawan’s senior, Keshav (Manish Chaudhari), is about to suspend him, but Pawan promises to solve the case and find the culprits within seven days. Pawan learns that Reema had arrived in Jhamli to investigate allegations that underage boys are going missing from the ashram of godman Anand Shri (Saurabh Dwivedi). Anand Shri is too powerful and Pawan is warned against taking any action against him. Meanwhile, his personal life is on the rocks as his brother Deepak has eloped with Preeti (Suraksha Gaire), who belongs to a lower caste. The panchayat has decided to finish off the couple. What happens next forms the rest of the film.
