The Buckingham Murders review
The Hindustan Times review of the film read, “Kareena is the heartbeat of this film. Roughly 20 minutes in, you forget this is the same person who pulled off a constantly yapping Geet in Jab We Met so well, or a money-minded air hostess in her recent flick Crew. Kareena has the right amount of pain and anger, barring that scene where she screams out of frustration. It feels… like a tick on the list of ‘Things a Frustrated Mother Has To Do In Every Film’. When things are subtle, like holding back her tears right until the end, they are impactful.”
Kareena spoke about the film
As the movie hit the theatres, Kareena took to Instagram and said she felt proud of her “choices”. “As an actor, it’s the choices one makes…And I am very proud of this choice. Please watch this story and dive into my world of crime and drama… a dream I have always had to act in or produce one… but here I got the best of both worlds,” she wrote. The actor also shared BTS pictures from the sets.
