Whodunnits are here to stay in the Hindi film landscape. Last year, we saw Neeyat where a millionaire was murdered under mysterious circumstances and everyone idiosyncratic character was a suspect. A meticulous detective was investigating the same. And now, Netflix comes up with Murder Mubarak, another whodunnit with a fascinating ensemble.
This time, we have the likes of Dimple Kapadia, Karisma Kapoor, Sanjay Kapoor, Sara Ali Khan, Vijay Varma, and Pankaj Tripathi. Every trippy character has its own motivations and conflicts, and everyone is hiding a demonic secret. What to expect from this murder mystery?
The trailer transports viewers into the heart of New Delhi’s high society, where a series of strange events disrupt the peace and tranquillity of an elite club. As the glittering facade begins to crack, its members find themselves in a web of deception where loyalties are tested and the line between innocence and guilt becomes increasingly blurred. Navigating this maze of lies, love, and hidden agendas is Pankaj Tripathi, portraying a relentless cop with his own odd tactics. He’s determined to expose the club members’ darkest secrets in this funny and entertaining whodunnit.
Director Homi Adajania says, “It’s exciting to give our audiences a peek into the bizarre world of the Delhi Royal Club and its eccentric members in ‘Murder Mubarak.’ This film is about a murder mystery that unravels many more mysteries once the investigation starts. It’s captivating and hilarious at the same time. What makes this project even more special is our phenomenal multi-generational cast who breathe life into the story, bringing a unique freshness that’s very enjoyable to watch. This March, ‘Murder Mubarak’ will be handed over to the audience who I hope will be entertained, surprised and may even go back to figure why they never saw the breadcrumbs that are scattered throughout this twisted whodunit.”
