Recalling his reaction to the incident that took place in 1999, he shared, “I was about 50 when this happened, the end of the century. I remember being extremely disturbed because I feared it would provoke another wave of Islamophobia. Luckily at that time, it did not.”

He further added, “I remember feeling terribly concerned about the situation and what it would lead to. There was a feeling of ambivalence when the crisis was resolved. I was left with a feeling of unease when the deal was struck. I couldn’t pinpoint why I felt like that but I the pilot and the passengers had been through a horrifying time and this was no closure. That’s how I remember feeling.”

Hansal Mehta recently revealed Kareena Kapoor Khan’s son Jeh Ali Khan was a complete mischief maker on the sets of The Buckingham Murders. The actress who shot most of the film in London was accompanied by her little one, Jeh, on the sets of the film.

The filmmaker revealed a behind-the-scenes anecdote featuring Jeh. In a funny incident, little Jeh managed to swipe a continuity prop during one of the scenes. Hansal said, “Jeh took away a continuity prop.”

Speaking about how the role deeply resonated with her, Kareena said, “The character has so much soul. I thought it was the right time for me to do the character, to feel the character. Also, it is so much different from Crew or Jaane Jaan that also released this year. And I also think it is the duty of an actor to keep doing something differently over and over again. As far as balancing personal and professional life is concerned, I enjoy that hustle. I enjoy working at the same time being a mother and a wife. Jeh was there with me at the shoot.”
