Laal Kaptaan: Was the Saif Ali Khan starrer named Hunter previously?
Laal Kaptaan is a movie on revenge, bloodthirst, death and fear. The movie will release on October 11, 2019. It stars Saif Ali Khan as a Naga Sadhu.
The much-anticipated movie Laal Kaptaan is on the brink of release. The movie stars Saif Ali Khan, Deepak Dobriyal, Zoya Hussain, Saurabh Sachdeva, Manav Vij and Henry Douthwaite. Lootera star Sonakshi Sinha will have a cameo appearance in the movie. It is directed by Navdeep Singh.
Laal Kaptaan is a crime thriller produced by Saif's Color Yellow Productions
According to a newspaper daily, the movie was reportedly named Hunter when plans of the movie began. Hunter is the name of Saif Ali Khan’s character in the movie. Saif will be playing the role of a Naga Sadhu. Naga Sadhus are followers of Lord Shiva who live as outcasts and smear ash on their bodies. The trailer shows a Saif Ali Khan donning a red coat with a white dhoti. It seems that Saif’s look inspired the change of the film's name as he looks like a ‘Laal Kaptaan’.
Saif’s character is portrayed as very dangerous and fearless in the three-part trailer of the movie. The third trailer titled Chapter Three-The Revenge addresses how the revenge plot of the movie will progress. The audience also gets a glimpse of Saurabh Sachdeva and Manav Vij's characters. Co-producer Aanand Rai, in an interview, called Laal Kaptaan a movie that it will create a new genre and narrative style.
Saif Ali Khan has his kitty full of upcoming movies. After Laal Kaptaan, Saif will be seen in Jawaani Jaaneman which stars Tabu and Pooja Bedi’s daughter Alaia F.
