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.”

The trailer drops a thrilling glimpse into a high-octane heist led by a powerhouse cast: Saif Ali Khan, Jaideep Ahlawat, Kunal Kapoor and Nikita Dutta — each adding their own punch to the spectacle. We’re excited to partner with creators who consistently push the envelope to bring entertainment to audiences around the world.”
