"Saif is a gifted actor and this script allows him to showcase his talent like never before. 'Laal Kaptaan' boasts of a larger-than-life landscape, dramatic characters and a gripping story that makes it a first of its kind," Sunil Lulla, Managing Director, Eros International said in a statement.

'NH 10' helmer Navdeep Singh has directed the movie and Rai said he has full faith in the story.

"'Laal Kaptaan' is that kind of film that is definitely going to generate a genre and narrative style of its own," he added.

'Laal Kaptaan' also features 'Mukkabaaz' actor Zoya Hussain and Manav Vij in pivotal roles.
