What Hansal said about Kareena

During the chat, Hansal said: “I must put it on record that Kareena is an absolute dream to work with. I might be wounded by a past experience, but that did not have any bearing on Buckingham Murders. It was one of the most smooth and very beautiful shooting experiences I’ve had in my entire 3 decades of working… she never came across as a tantrummy star.”

He went on to add, “She surrendered herself to the film, to the character. Her work ethic was astounding. She would always be there on set, giving cues to other actors when their sets were being shot. She had the work ethics of an actor. It’s very basic, but she did that. She was always there around for the scene, to make it better. It was never just about her. So it’s a performance that has a lot of internal pain and very little vanity.”

More details

The Buckingham Murders evolves around sergeant Jasmeet ‘Jass’ Bhamra (Kareena) dealing with the loss of her young son Ekam (Mairaaj Kakkar). She is assigned a case of a missing boy, Ishpreet, roughly as old as Ekam. The film’s ensemble also includes Ash Tandon, Ranveer Brar, and Keith Allen. It is written by Aseem Arrora, Kashyap Kapoor, and Raghav Raj Kakker. The Buckingham Murders released in theatres on September 13, 2024. It also marks Kareena’s debut as a producer.
