Kunal Kemmu’s Madgaon Express stars Pratik Gandhi, Divyendu and Avinash Tiwary in the lead roles. The film release on March 22.

Kunal Kemmu is all set to make his directorial debut with his highly anticipated film, Madgaon Express. The film is all set to release in theatres on March 22. Ahead of the film’s release, the actor shared in a promotional interview with Farhan Akhtar that he was initially scared to put out the film’s script.

While sharing that the story stemmed from his liking for Dil Chahta Hai, Kemmu shared, “As an artist, I am somebody who was an actor, loved writing, and ended up being a director. Farhan has been that person way before me with no fear of being judged, and that is what I love the most.”

Kunal then added that he didn’t want them to feel like he was an actor who wasn’t getting work and hence moved in that direction. “Within this industry, you are very scared; you walk on eggshells. I was scared to put out the script for Madgaon Express because I didn’t want them to feel like I was an actor who was not getting the work he wanted to do, so now I want to branch out and do this,” he shared.

In the same interview, Kunal also shared how box office records can measure a film’s success. “I have been a part of films that have gotten a lot of love, but there have also been films that didn’t do well at the box office, and it changed my perspective of at least being an actor then. In our case, you don’t get the opportunity to make that film again or do the work you want to do,” he said.

On a closing note, he added, “I don’t want this film to be one of those ‘that was nice, but the timing was wrong’ movies. Because your next chance is dependent on that,” he shared. “I take it seriously for not just my creative satisfaction, but I want everybody who is putting money there to also feel it was worth the fun.”

Madgaon Express is being backed by Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar under the banner of Excel Entertainment. The film is all set to hit theatres on March 22, 2024.
