Welcome to The Royal Delhi Club, renowned for its elite clientele, extravagant soirées, and unparalleled hospitality. Founded by the British but now patronized by those who perpetuate the classist, discriminatory, and racially-charged attitudes reminiscent of pre-independence society. When a ruthless murder rocks the club, chaos ensues as ACP Bhavani Singh (Pankaj Tripathi) takes charge with his laid-back approach to unraveling every facet of this heinous crime. He methodically interrogates each guest, for whom the club offers an opulent escape from their mundane lives.
What truly elevates ‘Murder Mubarak’ is its unpredictability. Director Homi Adajania and his team of writers (Anuja Chauhan, Gazal Dhaliwal, Suprotim Sengupta) weave a tapestry of twists and turns, successfully keeping the audience guessing for the most part. While the abundance of characters may seem overwhelming, Adajania and his writers skillfully ensure each one receives ample screen time and characterization, complete with their own idiosyncrasies. The film’s entertaining character introductions and engaging screenplay maintain viewer interest throughout.
Modeled after Agatha Christie’s Hercule Poirot, Pankaj Tripathi’s character leads this somewhat uneven whodunit in his signature style. The actor endeavors to distinguish his portrayal from his previous roles, yet it still feels somewhat repetitive. At times, it’s frustrating to witness his calm and casual demeanor amidst a group of arrogant and snobbish club members. Sara Ali Khan exudes elegance and effortlessly embodies her role as the quirky yet enchanting Bambi Todi. However, her chemistry with Vijay Varma appears somewhat forced. Varma’s character, Aakash Dogra, lacks depth and remains enigmatic throughout. Karisma Kapoor makes a commendable comeback as the former B-grade actress Shehnaz Noorani, standing out amidst a cacophony of eccentric characters. Tisca Chopra’s portrayal of the pretentious upper-class Delhiite Roshni Batra feels overdone, while Dimple Kapadia shines as the vivacious socialite Cookie Katoch. Sanjay Kapoor steals the show with his portrayal of the frugal royal Hukum Rannvijay Singh, delivering the most entertaining performance among the ensemble.
Despite the plethora of characters threatening to overshadow the main plotline, Adajania adeptly balances each one, ensuring they receive adequate screen time and development. Although the film features only a handful of songs, its runtime exceeds expectations.
In conclusion, ‘Murder Mubarak’ is a captivating whodunit with wide-ranging appeal. The film effectively maintains its suspenseful atmosphere, keeping viewers enthralled as they unravel the mystery behind a ruthless murder. While the investigation may not be flawlessly executed, the film delivers on its promise to keep audiences guessing until the very end.
