Filmmaker Pulkit, known for his upcoming film 'Kartavya' set to release on May 15, has shared insights into his filmmaking preferences, particularly his inclination towards releasing films directly on streaming platforms rather than in theatres. In a recent interview with Variety India, he expressed that the pressure associated with theatrical releases significantly affects his creative process. Reflecting on his last theatrical film, 'Maalik,' which starred Rajkummar Rao and Manushi Chhillar, Pulkit admitted, 'I wasn’t happy with the final film because I didn’t do a good job under pressure.' 'Maalik' narrates the journey of Deepak, a farmer's son who rises as a gangster in Allahabad during the 1980s, showcasing his transformation driven by ambition and personal loss. The film, produced by Kumar Taurani under Tips Films, marks Pulkit's first theatrical release. Additionally, he shared his excitement about casting Saif Ali Khan in 'Kartavya,' noting his long-standing admiration for the actor. Pulkit also expressed gratitude for the support he received from Shah Rukh Khan, stating that having two films produced by him was a surreal experience.
