In a major move, Netflix has acquired the rights to Siddharth Anand and Saif Ali Khan’s next film. The film, which is yet to be titled, is a mission-oriented actioner with Saif Ali Khan racing against time. It will be directed by Robby Grewal, who directed John Abraham in RAW.
The film marks a reunion of Saif Ali Khan and Siddharth Anand after films like Salaam Namaste and Tara Rum Pum. The deal is reportedly worth Rs 60 crore, making it one of the biggest deals for a direct-to-digital film in India.
The film is expected to go on floors soon and will be released on Netflix in 2024. It is a major coup for Netflix, which is looking to expand its presence in the Indian market. The film is also a sign of the growing popularity of direct-to-digital films in India.
