Kunal Kemmu has revealed that he is moving forward with the sequel to his 2024 directorial debut, Madgaon Express. After the buddy comedy, which starred Pratik Gandhi, Divyenndu, and Avinash Tiwary, received positive reviews, fans have been eager for news about a sequel. Speaking to News18, he confirmed that the script for the sequel is already complete.
Kunal said, “Yes, it’s in the works. But my next film is Vibe. It’s due for release on September 18. So, all my energy is focused on that. But I’ve finished writing Madgaon Express 2.” While the script is ready, he mentioned that filming will only start after his upcoming action-comedy, Vibe, which also stars Preity Zinta, is released.
Interestingly, Kunal revealed that the concept for the sequel was not a recent development. In fact, he had the idea mapped out while working on the original film. He explained, “You always plan. You’ll only make a sequel if a film works. When I wrote the first film, there were some loose ends. There was an idea of where it’s going to go. I told Excel also when the first film happened that I’m going to write a sequel if it organically flows and if I feel that there’s a film there.”
Kunal shared that he wanted the story to develop naturally rather than rushing into a project just to capitalize on the first film’s success. He said, “I don’t want to do a sequel with any and every story just because the first one has worked. So, they also didn’t know about till the time I finished it. Only when I finished it, I told them that I’ve written it. They said, let’s hear it. But most of the people haven’t even heard it. Divyenndu knows that this is in the works and that’s how the news came out.”
He credited his writing discipline to his experience with Go Goa Gone, which allowed him to document the various stories he had envisioned over the years, including Madgaon Express, which he originally wrote in 2014.
