Produced by Gauri Khan under Red Chillies Entertainment, the story follows the officer as he navigates rising threats while trying to ensure the safety of his family. As situations intensify, the film explores how the lines between right and wrong start to blur, highlighting themes of power, guilt and the cost of silence.
The film features an ensemble cast including Rasika Dugal, Sanjay Mishra, Zakir Hussain and Manish Chaudhari, with Saurabh Dwivedi making his acting debut. The performances aim to bring authenticity to a story rooted in the realities of India’s hinterland, adding depth to the film’s central conflict.
The makers describe Kartavya as a narrative that raises questions around duty and conscience, focusing on choices that do not have clear answers. With its grounded setting and emotionally driven storytelling, the film presents a reflective take on justice, personal stakes and the consequences of every decision.
