Kareena Kapoor Khan pens note as she turns producer for Hansal Mehta’s ‘The Buckingham Murders’
Kareena Kapoor Khan has penned a heartfelt note as she turns producer for Hansal Mehta’s ‘The Buckingham Murders’.
The actress plays Jasmeet Bhamra, a detective who investigates a series of murders in London.
She wrote, “Jas was a character I have been waiting to play for the last 23 years, being a huge fan of the detective series genre… watching everything from Karamchand to Helen Mirren in Prime Suspect to Agatha Christie in Hercule Poirot to Kate Winslet in Mare of Easttown, I was just dying to be that detective woman. On a 25-page synopsis given to me by Hansal and Ekta, I started reading it at 1 a.m., and I knew I had found the woman I wanted to be… Ekta, Hansal and I set off on this journey to make a slightly unconventional film, but a film that is with heart, a bit of a smile, and, oh my god, lots of tears…”
‘The Buckingham Murders’ premiered at the British Film Institute on 14th October. She added, “I couldn’t be more nervous and excited as an actor and a first-time producer… I feel so odd writing that… but I feel really cool… So giving you all a glimpse of this gem we made… into the world of Jas Bhamra. I do hope Jas hasn’t ended her journey yet, because it’s been a dream to continue this wonderful yet strong woman whose grief is beyond measure but stronger than she knows.”
