Kareena Kapoor in `The Buckingham Murders` teaser
Kareena Kapoor Khan and Ektaa R Kapoor join forces for Hansal Mehta's latest film, âThe Buckingham Murders'. The newly released teaser has already caught our attention, showcasing a different side of Hansal Mehta's storytelling prowess. Known for his work in various genres, Mehta now delves into suspense and thriller with a gripping narrative that contrasts sharply with Kareena's usual fun-loving roles.
The teaser suggests an intense and thrilling performance from Kareena, one we haven't seen before. She is seen playing the role of Jasmeet Bhamra, a grieving British-Indian detective assigned to investigate the case of a murdered child in Buckinghamshire. It will be interesting to see the actress bring intensity to the role of a tough cop in this project.
The first glimpse sets the premise for a murder mystery after a child belonging to an Indian family goes missing from a park, supposedly dead. Kareena sets out to investigate the case but at the same time, she's finding it difficult to take control of her emotions and work objectively. Kareena is known for her acting chops, and this film, which is also her maiden production is about to be another career-defining performance at her end.
