Saif Ali Khan’s upcoming thriller Jewel Thief—The Heist Begins is set to release on Netflix on April 25, the makers announced on Friday. The film is produced by Siddharth Anand and Mamta Anand and directed by Kookie Gulati and Robbie Grewal. It also stars Jaideep Ahlawat, Kunal Kapoor and Nikita Dutta in pivotal roles.

The makers unveiled a new poster which features Saif, Jaideep, Nikita and Kunal in a thrilling avatar. They wrote in caption, “The bigger the risk, the sweeter the steal. Aa raha hai the incredible- Jewel Thief. Watch Jewel Thief, out 25 April, only on Netflix.”

Speaking about the film Saif shared in a press release, "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, 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, who plays the relentless mafia boss, added, “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.”

The film marks Saif's third collaboration with Siddharth, who directed the actor in Salaam Namaste (2005) and Ta Ra Rum Pum (2007).
