Popular journalist Saurabh Dwivedi made his acting debut with Netflix's movie Kartavya. But he is being trolled for his performance in the film.

Netflix's new film Kartavya, starring Saif Ali Khan in the lead role, started streaming on the OTT platform on Friday. The Shah Rukh Khan production venture has received mixed reviews from critics and the audience. It marks the acting debut of popular journalist Saurabh Dwivedi, and he has failed to impress netizens with his acting.

A netizen tweeted, "Sorry, but from watching Amrish Puri saab as a villain in movies to watching Saurabh Dwivedi as a villain with this expression and worst dialogue delivery, what a downgrade of Bollywood! (sic)."

Another X user wrote, "Saurabh Dwivedi, what terrible acting. Bro thinks acting is also like anchoring. Those two are characters, not guests at your show, man. Constantly smiling. No expression change. Dialogues have split-second pauses. Why would anybody cast him in a show (sic)."

One more netizen tweeted, "Watching Saurabh Dwivedi's act in #Netflix felt like a play was happening on a fairground stage. It takes people years to learn acting, and Saurabh Dwivedi went straight ahead and shared screen space with Saif Ali Khan in a film. This movie 'Kartavya' could have been even better without Saurabh Dwivedi (sic)." Check out the tweets below...
