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 that's truly special. With Jewel Thief, we've 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 can't 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. It's 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.”
