The story follows a classic murder mystery setup, reminiscent of Agatha Christie’s iconic works such as “Murder on the Orient Express” and “Death on the Nile.” However, unlike its predecessors, “Murder Mubarak” lacks the depth and complexity needed to engage audiences. The plot feels contrived and poorly executed, relying on clichés and predictable twists rather than offering genuine intrigue.While Pankaj Tripathi and Vijay Varma deliver commendable performances, injecting some much-needed life into the film, other cast members like Sara Ali Khan and Dimple Kapadia fail to leave a lasting impression. Even the return of Karishma Kapoor to Bollywood fails to make a significant impact, despite her efforts to portray the role of the “Diva.”

One of the film’s major shortcomings lies in its screenplay and character development. The story feels disjointed, with poorly defined characters and subplots that fail to contribute meaningfully to the overall narrative. A crisper edit and better utilization of the ensemble cast could have potentially salvaged the film, but unfortunately, “Murder Mubarak” falls short of delivering a compelling murder mystery.

In conclusion, “Murder Mubarak” is a missed opportunity in the realm of Indian murder mysteries. Despite its talented cast and promising premise, the film fails to deliver a gripping and engaging story, ultimately leaving audiences disappointed.
