Two old genres recently reanimated come together in Murder Mubarak (now on Netflix), the murder mystery and the eat-the-rich satire. I feel like we’ve seen that marriage before, but more on that in a minute, because we have to keep nut-graffing this graf: Homi Adajania directs a large ensemble cast led by Pankaj Tripathi, Sara Ali Khan and Vijay Varma, because a small ensemble cast just wouldn’t provide the necessary levels of convolution to properly qualify the film as a murder mystery. Adapting Anuja Chauhan’s novel Club You to Death, the movie is set at an upper-crust Delhi country club full of characters steeped in enough privilege that you can’t help but laugh when they’re traumatized by a murder on the premises – or maybe not traumatized enough, because what should we expect from caricatures of extraordinarily rich people? Portraits of poignant humanity?
