Actor Abhimanyu Singh has responded to the online trolling surrounding journalist Saurabh Dwivedi's acting debut in the upcoming film Kartavya.

Reacting to the backlash, speaking to Hindi Rush, Abhimanyu said that every profession requires a unique skill set, adding, "Aap ek field mein bahut acche ho, iska matlab yeh nahi ki doosri field mein bhi utne hi acche ho jaoge. Woh bahut acche journalist hain. Lekin acting alag cheez hai."

Furthermore, the actor used a metaphor to make his point, saying, "Ho sakta hai aap bichchu ka zeher utaarna jaante ho, lekin iska matlab yeh nahi ki aap saanp ke bill mein haath daal do."

At the same time, he also clarified that he has no issue with influencers or social media personalities entering films. He added, "Har kisi ka ghar chal raha hai, woh bhi ek field hai. Jo log isko encash kar pa rahe hain, I’m happy for them," he stated.

Kartavya made its digital debut on Netflix on May 15, 2026.

Helmed by director Pulkit and backed by Shah Rukh Khan's Red Chillies Entertainment, Kartavya features journalist Saurabh Dwivedi as a powerful, morally grey antagonist entangled in a high-profile homicide investigation led by Saif Ali Khan’s police officer character.
