Married in 2012, Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor have embraced parenthood with the arrival of their sons, Taimur Ali Khan in December 2016 and Jehangir Ali Khan in February 2021. Notably, Kareena also has a cinematic reason to celebrate, as her film “The Buckingham Murders” had its premiere at the BFI London Film Festival. In honor of the event, she shared character stills of Jas Bhamra, a role she had long aspired to play.
Expressing her enthusiasm for the detective genre, she revealed the influences that drove her towards this venture, from classics like “Karamchand” to contemporary gems like “Mare of Easttown.” Kareena explained how she felt drawn to the character and highlighted the unconventional yet heartfelt approach that she, Hansal Mehta, and Ekta Kapoor pursued in the film. Additionally, she noted her dual role as an actor and first-time producer, expressing both excitement and nervousness. “The Buckingham Murders” also marks her debut as a producer, with Ekta Kapoor as her co-producer.
Kareena Kapoor also shared about the time when she was given a 25-page synopsis by Hansal Mehta and Ekta Kapoor. She said, “On a 25-page synopsis given to me by Hansal and Ekta, I started reading it at 1 a.m., and I knew I had found the woman I wanted to be… Ekta, Hansal and I set off on this journey to make a slightly unconventional film, but a film that is with heart, a bit of a smile, and, oh my god, lots of tears… It played at the British Film Institute last night, and as this film starts its journey… in the world of movies… I couldn’t be more nervous and excited as an actor and a first-time producer… I feel so odd writing that… but I feel really cool…”. Kareena Kapoor’s professional journey continues with her involvement in “The Crew” and her role in Rohit Shetty’s “Singham Again.”
