“This week, I chose my first screening based on the director and watched it because of Hansal Mehta but… KILLER LADYYYY KAREENA KILLED IT. This might be her career best performance. She slayed it. Hansal barely managed to be Hansal. #TheBuckinghamMurders #KareenaKapoor,” a social media user wrote.
Meanwhile, ETimes has rated the film 3.5 out of 5 and our review reads, “A de-glam Bebo weaponises her silence amid the chaos as she seeks closure in solving the case. She hasn’t done anything like this before and this is a welcome change.This may not be an edge-of-your-seat, hard-hitting crime thriller as you expect it to be, but its understanding and expression of grief, isolation and repressed anger is noteworthy. Also, you won’t be able to guess the killer till the end. If that’s what you are looking for, this film succeeds. You just wish the build up was more chilling and captivating.”
