Murder mysteries hold a special allure when the veil over the secret remains until the very end, leaving audiences guessing until the final reveal. This is precisely what sets apart Homi Adajania’s directorial venture, “Murder Mubarak.”
Last month saw producer Dinesh Vijan’s film, “Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya,” hit the screens, failing to meet both audience and critics’ expectations. However, Homi Adajania has filled the void left by the former with “Murder Mubarak,” earning accolades primarily for his directorial finesse.
Set in the ambiance of Delhi’s Royal Club, “Murder Mubarak” revolves around a murder mystery. This elite club frequented not only by the city’s affluent but also by film stars and royalty, is suddenly enveloped in suspicion following the untimely demise of a young man, Leo Mathew. ACP Bhavani Singh suspects foul play, contrary to the club president’s dismissive stance, and delves into unraveling the threads of this apparent accident.
The character of Leo Mathew, portrayed by Pankaj Tripathi, seems to know the secrets of every club member. ACP Bhavani Singh begins to suspect that his murder could be linked to these revelations. His suspicions turn into certainty when he discovers that the CCTV footage during Leo Mathew’s demise was conveniently tampered with.
Based on Anuja Chauhan’s book “Club You to Death,” the screenplay, co-written by Chauhan, Gazal Dhaliwal, and Supratim Sengupta, ensures that viewers remain engaged throughout. Each revelation in the film leaves audiences both intrigued and startled.
Following the success of “Angrezi Medium,” director Homi Adajania’s “Murder Mubarak” skipped theatrical release, opting instead for a direct release on the OTT platform Netflix. Prior to this, Adajania’s web series “Saas Bahu Aur Flamingos” streamed on Disney Plus Hotstar last year. Adajania’s forte lies in his ability to understand the pulse of the audience, regardless of the genre. “Murder Mubarak” maintains this trait by keeping viewers guessing until the very end.
Pankaj Tripathi shines in the role of ACP Bhavani Singh, bringing his characteristic depth to the character. His portrayal, coupled with his knack for immersing himself entirely into any role, resonates well with the audience. Sara Ali Khan delivers a multifaceted performance, adding layers to her character. Karishma Kapoor makes a notable return to the screen after a considerable hiatus, leaving a distinct impression in her role. Other standout performances include Dimple Kapadia as Bambi Todi, Tisca Chopra as Roshni Batra, Sanjay Kapoor as Ranvijay Singh, and Ashim Gulati as Leo Mathew.
Vijay Varma, despite limited screen time as Akash Dogra, manages to leave a lasting impact with his unique portrayal.
