Oh Bollywood, you never cease to entertain me, even when you’re not trying!
Alright, my fellow Bollywood aficionados, let’s dive into the latest drama from the tinsel town. Our beloved Bebo, aka Kareena Kapoor Khan, is back in the limelight, but not quite in the way she might have hoped.
Kareena, darling, we know you’ve been in this game for 25 years now. From your debut in JP Dutta’s Refugee alongside Abhishek Bachchan, to your iconic roles in Jab We Met, Omkara, Bajrangi Bhaijaan, Bodyguard, Good Newz, and Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham—you’ve given us quite the cinematic journey. But what on earth is happening with The Buckingham Murders?
Now, let’s get to the juicy part. Kareena plays a detective in this Hansal Mehta-directed film, chasing down a child’s murderer while dealing with her own grief. Sounds intense, right? Well, the box office numbers are less intense and more… let’s say, tragic. The film managed to rake in just ₹7.65 crore in the first week. Ouch. The second weekend saw a slight bump thanks to National Cinema Day’s ₹99 ticket prices, adding another ₹1.55 crore. But come the second Monday, and the film barely scraped ₹10 lakh. 😬 Total collection? A mere ₹9.3 crore. The Hindi version did most of the heavy lifting with ₹5.59 crore.
Kareena, you know I love you, but even the most loyal fans are scratching their heads. Maybe it’s time to switch gears?
But fear not, Bebo fans! There’s hope on the horizon. Kareena is gearing up for Singham Again with Rohit Shetty and Ajay Devgn, set to clash with Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 featuring Kartik Aaryan, Vidya Balan, Madhuri Dixit-Nene, and Triptii Dimri this Diwali. Now that’s a showdown I’m here for! Plus, there’s a buzz that she might be in Meghna Gulzar’s next film post Sam Bahadur.
Nisha’s Nutshell: Bollywood is like a box of chocolates; you never know what you’re gonna get. Sometimes it’s sweet success, and sometimes it’s a bitter box office flop. But hey, there’s always another film on the horizon!
