Shah Rukh Khan and Saif Ali Khan rocked the show with their bromance in Kal Ho Naa Ho (2003). A few years later, they hosted the Filmfare Awards and its jokes and gags are remembered even today. And nearly 23 years after the romcom, both have joined hands yet again. Saif Ali Khan will headline Kartavya, which is produced by SRK’s banner, Red Chillies Entertainment. The trailer of the film was released today, May 7, and at the launch, Saif Ali Khan explained his association with Shah Rukh and how he came on board for Kartavya.
Saif Ali Khan said, "I had a very short conversation with Shah Rukh Khan. I have had a lovely and a long association with him. I look up to him in many, many ways. So, it was a short chat. He told me, 'There's a lovely script. I'd like you to hear it and do the film'. I did, met the director and came on board."
He continued, "Once the film was complete, he said, 'It has come out as a lovely movie'. He was very happy. So, that was pretty much it."

Saif Ali Khan also revealed, "He never came on set because I believe that some very good producers believe in allowing the director to operate freely and make the film that he wants to make. Also, the presence of some producers can often be overwhelming on the sets. That way, he gave a lot of room to make this film."
Saif further stated, "I felt I was working for his production with his kind of sensibilities. But for that, an everyday kind of contact was not really (required)."
Kartavya also stars Rasika Dugal, Sanjay Mishra, Zakir Hussain and others. Directed by Pulkit, it premieres on Netflix on May 15.
