    Is Kareena's 'The Buckingham Murders' based on a real story

    What's the story

    Hansal Mehta's upcoming crime thriller, The Buckingham Murders, has been generating buzz ahead of its release on Friday, September 13.

    The film features Kareena Kapoor Khan in the lead role of Jasmeet Bhamra, a British-Indian detective investigating the murder of a 10-year-old child in Buckinghamshire.

    This intriguing plot has led many to wonder if the movie is based on a true story or adapted from a novel.

    Fictional plot

    'The Buckingham Murders' is entirely fictional

    Contrary to some speculations, The Buckingham Murders is not based on a true story or any literary source. The plot is entirely fictional, although it has sparked comparisons with the Kate Winslet-starrer series Mare of Easttown.

    Some viewers believe that the series may have served as an inspiration for the film, given the similarities in their crime-solving narratives and the protagonists.

    Director's response

    Director denies 'Mare of Easttown' inspiration claims

    In response to the comparisons with Mare of Easttown, director Hansal Mehta has urged viewers to refrain from making judgments until they have seen The Buckingham Murders. He advised against jumping to conclusions based on mere speculations.

    Despite these clarifications, Kapoor Khan recently expressed her admiration for Winslet in an interview, adding fuel to the ongoing speculation.

    Character portrayal

    Kapoor Khan clarifies her character's inspiration

    While acknowledging her admiration for Winslet, Kapoor Khan clarified that her character in The Buckingham Murders is entirely her own creation.

    She emphasized that although she is a huge fan of Winslet, her portrayal of Jasmeet Bhamra does not mirror Winslet's character in Mare of Easttown.

    This clarification from the lead actor further confirms that the film is an original creation.
