Netflix has unveiled a heart-pounding trailer for its upcoming heist action thriller, ‘Jewel Thief- The Hiest Begins’. Packed with style, speed and suspense, the film launches on April 25 and promises an edgy ride from start to finish.
Starring Saif Ali Khan as Rehan Roy, a charming and cunning thief with wits as sharp as his moves, and Jaideep Ahlawat as Rajan Aulakh, a cool and calculated mafia boss, the heist thriller boasts a star-studded ensemble cast, the streamer said in a statement.
Joining them are Kunal Kapoor as Vikram Patel, a relentless detective determined to catch the thief red-handed, and Nikita Dutta as Farah, who has stolen a different kind of jewel — Roy’s heart. As loyalties shift and motives blur, the race begins for the ultimate prize: the coveted African Red Sun jewel. Buckle up for a high-stakes game of power, pride and romance, infused with an adrenaline-fueled chase.
Directed by Kookie Gulati and Robbie Grewal, and produced by Marflix Pictures in its streaming debut, ‘Jewel Thief…’ marks the first collaboration between Netflix and the production house founded by Siddharth and Mamta Anand.
Speaking about the film, the producers shared, “As filmmakers, we’re constantly exploring new ways to tell stories that are stylish, compelling, and surprising. With ‘Jewel Thief’, we wanted to create a cinematic universe that felt both classic and fresh — a modern-day heist with emotion and pace. This is our first streaming venture, and we couldn’t have asked for a better partner than Netflix to bring that vision to life. The story is slick, the characters are layered, and the scale is massive, so gear up for this action-packed adventure.”
Ruchikaa Kapoor Sheikh, Director of Original Films, Netflix India, said, ‘Jewel Thief – The Heist Begins’ is an ode to the classic Bollywood heist film: think big action, bigger adventure and all the blockbuster flair we love.
“It marks Siddharth Anand’s first direct-to-streaming production, and true to form, he’s bringing the full cinematic experience to Netflix — scale, style and all the swagger. The trailer drops a thrilling glimpse into a high-octane heist led by a powerhouse cast.”
