In January 2022, it was reported that actor Kunal Kemmu is preparing to take on a new role as director for a comedy film produced by Excel Entertainment.
Kemmu has now confirmed the news and revealed the title of his directorial debut, Madgaon Express, on the occasion of Ganesh Chaturthi on Wednesday.
The release date is still unknown.
Context
What is the significance of this story?
Kemmu began his career as a child artist and rose to prominence in films like Raja Hindustani, Zakhm, Hum Hain Rahi Pyar Ke, and Bhai, among others.
In the second phase of his career, he established his prowess with projects such as Kalyug, Go Goa Gone, and the web series Abhay.
As a result, it will be interesting to see what flavor he brings to Madgaon Express now!
Announcement
‘A thought in my head became a dream.’
Kemmu, who also wrote Madgaon Express, took to social media to inform his followers of the exciting news.
“It all started with a thought in my head, which grew into a dream, which flowed out through my fingers into words on my laptop, and now it’s becoming a reality on its way to the silver screen,” he wrote.
Gratitude
Kemmu also expressed his appreciation for the production company.
Ritesh Sidhwani, Farhan Akhtar, and Rucha Pathak of Excel Entertainment were also thanked by the Golmaal 3 actor.
Kemmu expressed gratitude to them for “believing in [his] script and vision and partnering with [him] on this exciting journey in the world of cinema.”
Interestingly, Kemmu previously wrote dialogue for the zombie horror-comedy Go Goa Gone, so writing isn’t new to him.
What is Kemmu, the actor, up to these days?
The 39-year-old will next be seen in Kanjoos Makkhichoos, in which he will appear alongside Shweta Tripathi and Piyush Mishra.
The film was directed by Vipul Mehta (writer of Super Nani).
He will also appear alongside Pankaj Tripathi and Abhishek Banerjee in Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK’s Gulkanda Tales on Amazon Prime Video.
Rahi Anil Barve, best known for his work on Tumbbad, will direct the series.
