Kareena Kapoor in The Buckingham Murders
The Opening Night film at the Jio MAMI Mumbai Film Festival this year will be The Buckingham Murders, directed by Hansal Mehta. The film is co-produced by Ekta Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor Khan, who also stars in the film. The film will be screened on October 27 at the NMACC (Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre), following a successful World Premiere at the 67th BFI London Film Festival. The Jio MAMI Mumbai Film Festival will run from October 27 to November 5 this year.
Director Hansal Mehta’s moody procedural is an exploration of grief, our longing for closure, and captures the human cost of our polarised times. The story follows cop and single mother Jasmeet Bhamra (Kareena Kapoor Khan), who recently lost her child in a shooting spree, as she transfers to a market town north of London and is assigned the case of a missing child.
