Over a year on, the actor has completed the first schedule that was conducted on the outskirts of London. Kareena plays a cop in the yet-untitled thriller that is inspired by a real-life story.

Last week, the actor was seen filming some intense scenes in High Wycombe, a town in the north-west of London. A source reveals, "In the sequence, Kareena's cop character is seen investigating a crime in a residential area. It's a raw and gritty movie, in keeping with Hansal's brand of cinema. Kareena counts it among her most intense roles, and did several workshops before they began filming from October 6."
