New Delhi: Kareena Kapoor Khan's latest release, The Buckingham Murders, has made a notable impression at the box office, with a ₹1.62 crore collection on its opening day.

This strong start is particularly impressive given the film's mature themes, intense narrative, and unique title. The film’s day 2 earnings have seen a remarkable 90 percent increase, reflecting its growing popularity and positive reception.

At the trailer launch of The Buckingham Murders that took place in Mumbai, Ektaa stated that ''The film had already recovered its budget. The Buckingham Murders full cost has been covered including its P&A. Theatrically and box office wise (in India and worldwide), it’s a profit," she said.

#TheBuckinghamMurders opens on expected lines. A niche film, it has seen a controlled release in theatres. It's a kind of a film that grows on the basis of word of mouth, which is going positive.
