September 13th, Friday will end a long drought of the release of new Hindi films. Kareena Kapoor Khan starrer The Buckingham Murders will be released in cinemas on the day in Hindi and English. The film has been set in England and hence contains most of the dialogues in English. But the movie has been dubbed in Hindi as well by the same actors voicing the dub, hence maintaining the authenticity of dialogues. The movie will end the long absence of Hindi movies which forced audiences to watch re-releases and same old movies.
On the same day, Rahi Anil Barve’s directed Tumbbad which stars Sohum Shah and Mohammad Samad will also be re-released in the theatres. The film was released back in 2018, at that time, the film could not get much attention, hardly earning the budget of the film. The film soon after its release in OTT became a cult classic and gained a lot of appreciation. The film is expected to receive a huge response after its release again.
Tumbbad, though, has already proved its worth among the audience as a genius film. It received a lot of accolades from the critics and also received multiple awards. Its fan following has been huge in the past years and the film also comes with the nostalgic touch which can bring audiences to the theatres. Considering the current scene with the re-released movies, Tumbbad will expect a very good return from the audience. The movie had such graphics and spectacles, people who watched it back on OTT platforms, will surely look forward to watching it in theatres.
The Buckingham Murders on the other hand is an upcoming mystery thriller from Hansal Mehta. Kareena Kapoor Khan has produced the film along with Ekta Kapoor and Shobha Kapoor, she also plays the lead role of a detective in the film. The trailer of the film looks quite promising with a lot of potential. The fact that the movie will be released in Hindi and English gives it a wider audience. Also, the reputation of Hansal Mehta is sure to bring audiences to the theatres.
Though both the films have their own advantages, Tumbbad gets an edge over The Buckingham Murders as it is already an established name as a cinematic genius. It also carries the touch of nostalgia with it. The film can gain more crowd in the initial days of the release, but if The Buckingham Murders turns out to be a great film, it can gain more people later after the release.
