Hansal Mehta's film The Buckingham Murders, featuring Kareena Kapoor Khan, premiered on Netflix on 8 November. But one user on X took a potshot at the Hindi dubbing in the film and termed it "bad".
Starring Kareena Kapoor Khan, The Buckingham Murders finally came on Netflix on 8th November 2024. The X user trolled the film for its bad Hindi dub, and Hansal Mehta responded to it with an apology that the original language version will come out on the platform soon.
The film was initially released in both dubbed and partially dubbed versions, including a Hinglish version in which 80 percent of the dialogues were in English and 20 percent were in Hindi, besides a fully dubbed version in Hindi. At present, the OTT platform comes available only as a dubbed Hindi film.
The user on X wrote, "I started watching #TheBukinghamMurders but the hindi dubbing is so bad. I couldn’t go beyond a few mins. Dear @mehtahansal was the movie shot in English? Why isn’t @NetflixIndia showing us the original version? Watching all the Brits speak in Hindi makes it sound so artificial."
Hansal Mehta replied, "Due to a technical error on the service @NetflixIndia will be uploading the original language version in a few hours. Thank you for your patience. And yes it can be quite irritating to watch a dubbed version of the film. Apologies."
Another X user @Sethumadhavan wrote moments after the film went live on Netflix India, “Hi @mehtahansal why isn't @NetflixIndia having the Hingliah version of #TheBuckinghamMurders? Watching all the Brits speak in Hindi makes it sound so artificial..... sigh!”
While another user wrote, "What's the original audio?? Audio Options me there is Hindi, Portuguese and Spanish. Was waiting for eagerly for this movie. Make it happen soon Hansal ji..."
The Buckingham Murders was first released in two versions, which were a Hindi version and the English dubbed.
In this film, Kareena Kapoor Khan plays the lead role of Jasmeet Bhamra, a British Indian detective, who is appointed to the case of murder, in which a 10-year boy has been involved.
