Now, in an interview, the director has revealed why he named the movie Madgaon Express. The actor-director mentioned, “I wanted to call it Madgaon Express because I like the whole idea…I wanted to place the climax of the film on the train. I didn’t know how I would do it, but I wanted to keep the train like an important aspect of the film. That was just the basic idea. And then eventually, when I started writing it, what was most important was to first find these 3 friends, and what they were all about, and what their friendship was all about and how they came back they picked up from right where they left.”

Addressing all the love that is coming his way, Kunal Kemmu also shared a gratitude note a few days ago. Sharing several behind-the-scenes images of himself with his film’s cast, Kunal Kemmu wrote, “From day 1 of the shoot to the day I mentioned the final pack up on the units of Madgaon Express. Each day has been so particular in so some ways. And I could not have completed it with out my wonderful staff of actors and technicians. To the various colors of friendship that the movie showcases and the various colors of my very own persona that I received to discover by means of this movie. I want you all a really completely satisfied Holi and thanks a lot for all of the love that you’ve got proven to our movie. May this competition of colors carry you all happiness and good luck.”

About the movie, NDTV’s Saibal Chatterjee wrote, “The film could well have been titled Madcap Express. Actor Kunal Kemmu’s directorial debut, Madgaon Express, is a wild and wacky comedy of errors that rarely, if ever, pauses for a breather. The film is deliriously funny as it moves effortlessly and incessantly between slapstick and sparkling silver-tongued wit. Emerging from a bloated movie industry that has all but forgotten the art of genuine humour, and coming in an era of overwhelming cynicism, the bro-mantic laugh riot written by the director himself, is a free-flowing blend of Go Goa Gone and Dil Chahta Hai while steadfastly being its own beast,” and gave it a solid 3 out of 5 stars.

Madgaon Express also stars Nora Fatehi, Chhaya Kadam, Upendra Limaye and Remo D’Souza in necessary roles.
