PVR INOX Limited, the largest and most premium cinema exhibitor in India, announces the Kareena Kapoor Khan Film Festival, a grand celebration of the remarkable 25-year career of one of India's most loved and talented actors. A powerful performer who has carved her own unique space in Indian cinema, Kareena's career is a compelling blend of box office success and critical acclaim. This week-long film festival will run over 30 Cinemas in 15 Cities from 20th September 2024 to 27th September 2024, offering audiences a unique opportunity to experience the best of Kareena's cinematic journey on the big screen once again. This celebration coincides with the release of her latest film, The Buckingham Murders-an atmospheric thriller that delves into themes of grief and the human desire for closure, featuring one of Kareena's most compelling performances. The Buckingham Murders is directed by Hansal Mehta and produced by Shobha Kapoor, Ektaa R Kapoor, and Kareena Kapoor Khan. It's presented by Balaji Telefilms in association with Kareena Kapoor Khan, A Mahana Films, and TBM Films Production. The release of The Buckingham Murders serves as a prelude to the film festival.
