Marudhar
Express brings the fresh pairing of Kunaal Roy Kapur & Tara Alisha Berry in
a heartfelt romantic drama set in Kanpur
After
directing two controversial films, ‘Coffee With D’ and ‘Hotel Milan’, Vishal
Mishra is now all set to bring a small-town love story, ‘Marudhar Express’ to
the big screen. The makers of the film have released two posters of the film,
which beautifully capture the sweet romantic moments between the lead pair in a
small-town setting of Kanpur.
The
film has an eccentric proposition, it’s a story about an arranged marriage
couple who comes under the pressure of childbirth right after they are wedded.
'Marudhar Express’ is loaded with humor, emotions and the reality of certain
struggles faced after marriage.
Earlier
titled ‘Hum Dono Honge Kaamyaab’, the film beautifully captures the emotional
yet hilarious journey of love and life after marriage, also raising integral
questions that are relevant today. Kunaal Roy Kapur plays an innocent man who
doesn’t play along with wits. Whereas, Tara Alisha Berry plays a smart and
ambitious girl who wants to make a name for herself and break through the
stereotypes that exist in a small town. Critically acclaimed actor, Rajesh
Sharma plays the father of the male protagonist and is a never-seen-before
quirky character.
Talking
about the film, director Vishal Mishra said, “The intention has been to make a
sweet family entertainer that can connect with the masses, yet raise vital
questions relevant to the current era. I am a huge fan of Hrishikesh Mukherjee
and his slice-of-life films. This film is truly inspired by his style of
filmmaking. A fair share of the credit also goes to our producer Raj Kushwaha
for his unconditional support.”
Despite
of the film being shot amidst de-monetization, the makers have successfully
managed to complete the film. Raj Kushwaha is the chairman of Axis Colleges in
Kanpur, also the first-time producer of the film, said, “It has been a
wonderful experience to work with Vishal in my first production venture.
‘Marudhar Express’ is very true to its genre of being a neat, clean family
entertainer. Above all, it has been a passionate execution from all of us and
that, more than anything, will resonate with the audience.”
Produced
by Raj Kushwaha, co-produced by Pramod Gore and directed by Vishal Mishra,
Marudhar Express is slated to release on 26th October 2018. The music of the film will be released under the
Zee Music Company label.
