It was almost a year ago when pictures of Saif Ali Khan as Naga Sadhu hit online and went viral instantly. Saif was almost unrecognisable with those dreadlocks and long beard. This film which was earlier known as Hunter has now been officially titled as Laal Kaptaan. The makers have released the film’s first look poster and we get to see Saif in a never-seen-before avatar. His look as Naga Sadhu is not just impressive but looks like the cinephiles will get to see another gripping tale on the big screens. LEAKED!

Laal Kaptaan directed by Navdeep Singh, would be an Eros International and Aanand L Rai presentation. The film is set to release on September 6 this year. In an interview to Mid-Day Saif Ali Khan had spoken about the time taken to get the look of Naga Sadhu. He was quoted saying, “I had to invest two hours a day for the make-up. (Shooting for the film was) like going to war every day.” He also gave a slight hint about the plot by saying, “I play a revengeful Naga Sadhu. He kills a British soldier, and wears a bandana to look cool.” Sacred Games Star Saif Ali Khan to Get Stark Naked For His Naga Sadhu Avatar?
