‘Kareena Kapoor is a vastly underutilized actor’ feels Hansal Mehta; agrees The Buckingham Murders is her career-best performance

Kareena Kapoor and Hansal Mehta collaborated on the mystery-thriller The Buckingham Murders. Released in September, the film coincided with the actress’ 25 years in the industry. While Bebo has given several terrific performances over the years, Mehta believes that the actress’ performance in the investigative thriller is her career’s best, as she is still ‘underutilized.’

In a recent conversation with News 18 Showsha, Hansal Mehta reacted to the appreciation Kareena Kapoor has received for The Buckingham Murders and mentioned that it is just the beginning. According to him, the actress’ talent has still not been utilized, and it is yet for the world to see.

He said, “I’ve always felt that Kareena is a vastly underutilized actor. She’s a big star, but as an actor, I feel there’s a lot more. There’s a huge reservoir that the world is yet to see. I feel this is the beginning and yes, when people say it’s a career-best performance — without sounding too vain — I also believe so.”

The National-Award-winning director further continued by recalling Mehta that he heard the story back in 2018 while he was shooting for Chhalaang and signed the actress in 2019.  The co-writer of Chhalaang, Aseem Arrora narrated the idea and then to Ekta Kapoor.

The ace producer signed the filmmaker for it and later in 2020, during the pandemic, Ekta organized a Zoom call between him and Bebo. “Kareena had read a 10-15 page treatment of the film and had already decided to do it,” Mehta shared.

Led by Kareena Kapoor, The Buckingham Murders also featured Ash Tandon, Ranveer Brar, and Keith Allen in key roles. The investigative thriller narrates the story of Jasmeet Bhamra (Kareena), who moves to another town to move on from the memories of losing her son to violence. She is then handed over the case of a missing boy, and how she paves through it is a bone-chilling experience.

On the work front, Bebo will be next seen in Rohit Shetty’s Singham Again. Led by Ajay Devgn, the film is poised to hit the theatres on the auspicious occasion of Diwali. Interestingly, it will be facing a clash at the box office with Kartik Aaryan’s Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 co-starring Triptii Dimri and Vidya Balan.

Netizens were quick to react to the post and one fan wrote, “Meri Raghav sir ki Pyari Parineeti ji my favourite Jodi Kisi Ki Buri Najar Na Pade mera favourite Jodi par”. One person commented, “Gorgeous couple”. 

Parineeti Chopra and Raghav Chadha got married on September 24, 2023, during an extravagant ceremony at The Leela Palace in Udaipur. Before their wedding, the couple had a lovely engagement ceremony at Kapurthala House in Delhi in May 2023.

In a interview with Bollywood Hungama, Parineeti shared that she now feels compelled to engage with politics, but she humorously complained that Raghav doesn’t keep up with the entertainment industry. She joked that only he knows what he has watched recently, and she often has to prompt him because he isn’t well-versed in films. 

While he has some knowledge of music, he wouldn’t recognize if a song was from her movie, so she frequently nudges him to “just pretend like you know” with a laugh. Despite this, she found it endearing, adding that the best part is that while she lacks knowledge about politics and he knows little about entertainment, their conversations revolve around life, which she finds ideal.

Meanwhile, on the professional front, Parineeti Chopra was last seen in Amar Singh Chamkila, directed by Imtiaz Ali co-starring Diljit Dosanjh. The film explores the life and tragic death of the iconic musician.

Michael Jackson’s Daughter Paris Jackson Reveals Dad Chose Elizabeth Taylor To Be Her Godmother Because Of THIS Reason

Paris Jackson, daughter of Michael Jackson, has made it clear why her father picked Elizabeth Taylor as godmother. This is because he wanted Paris to have a maternal figure who understands the burdens of being brought up in the public eye from a very young age. While the King of Pop‘s daughter spent most of her childhood shielded from the cameras by wearing masks, the Cleopatra actress began her acting career at the age of seven.

Paris reflected on Taylor’s presence as her godmother in the BBC documentary series titled Elizabeth Taylor: Rebel Superstar. She said, “There’s definitely a part of him that knew that we would have a very similar experience.” 

She recalled being homeschooled and not knowing how to be socially aware. Paris, during the documentary, explained that it was because she was homeschooled that she did not spend time with children her age, she believed Taylor would understand where she was coming from. The Wilted singer added, “I think it was just the same for her” referring to the National Velvet star’s experiences.

Dame Elizabeth made her acting debut in 1939 at just seven years old. The Hollywood legend took her last breath in 2011, following the unexpected death of Michael Jackson in 2009.

Michael and Elizabeth shared a very close bond throughout their time knowing each other. She was very fond of the Beat It singer and even attended his memorial in 2009 to comfort Paris and her brothers, Prince Jackson and Bigi Jackson. 

Taylor’s docuseries celebrates her craft not only as an actor who captivated audiences for decades but also her career as a businesswoman, activist, and advocate. It features Paris, Kim Kardashian, Sharon Stone, Anthony Fauci, and more stars along with archival footage of the maestro herself.

Besides Elizabeth Taylor, Home Alone star Macaulay Culkin also joined in as the godfather to Paris Jackson. Paris and Culkin have been affectionate and while he has called their relationship warm, he has kept the details to himself most of the time.

In 2018, he said that he’s very protective of his goddaughter, Paris, in an interview on WTF With Marc Maron. In August 2021, she noted that when she auditioned for American Horror Stories, Culkin advised her that she should be more ‘theatrical’ in her acting.
