Film Review: Murder Mubarak streaming on Netflix!!
In a nutshell this film is India's Knives Out with a strong ensemble cast!!
It is a dark comedy murder mystery set in the Royal Club in Delhi which is home ( literally!!) to the city's snobbish elite crowd. The murder of a sexy gym instructor Leo (Ashim Gulati) disrupts the delicate ecosystem of the crowd and marks the entry of India's Daniel Craig, ACP Bhavani Singh ( Pankaj Tripathi) who needs to use his expert sleuthing skills to solve this mystery. A lot of skeletons of the tumble out of the closet in the course of the investigation. Will Bhavani Singh finally nab the perp ?
Based on Anuja Chauhan's book "Club You to Death" the main USP of this film is the huge ensemble cast who add a lot of fun as well as emotional quotient to this whodunit.
A few members who have given great performances are - Rajaji ( Sanjay Kapoor) who plays a kangal royal who loves to flaunt his royalty.
The horny aunty club Dimple Kapadia ( Cookie Katoch) and Tisca Chopra ( Roshni Batra ) who love to lust after the young men in the club.
Bambi ( Sara Ali Khan) plays a young widow who secretly pines for the love of her life Lawyer Aakash Dogra ( Vijay Varma) Then there is Karishma Kapoor who plays yesteryear actress Shehnaz Noorani.
Others who deserve a mention are Deven Bhojwani as the Club's Manager & Brijendra Kala as waiter Guppi Ram.
All characters have hidden secrets and each one is a potential suspect!!
Be warned .. the narrative is non linear and given the large pool of suspects , the story can get confusing at times and u will need to be attention personified while watching it !
Pankaj Tripathi is just brilliant and carries the film on his strong shoulders with his quirky one-liners and funny demeanor. But fikar not, ACP Bhavani Singh is a man on a mission out to unravel the truth.
If you have enjoyed watching Knives out & Agatha Christie's novels and films .. you will definitely enjoy this one !
Going with 3/5. Worth a watch for sure .. Adios 🙂!!
