Kunal Kemmu Shares Wife Soha Ali Khan's Reaction To Madgaon Express: "It Was All Positive"

Kunal Kemmu and Soha Ali Khan have been married since 2015

Kunal Kemmu has proved his talent as an actor since his debut as a child artiste in the 1987  Doordarshan TV series Gul Gulshan Gulfaam. Now, in 2024, the actor has made his debut as a director with Madgaon Express, a comedy film that he also wrote. In addition to recording great numbers at the box office, the film has earned praise from various quarters. But what did his wife, actress-author Soha Ali Khan, have to say about Kunal Kemmu's directorial debut? Speaking to News18 Showsha, Kunal Kemmu shared that her “feedback was all positive”. He said: “When she had seen a couple of rushes, her feedback was all positive. As much as I trust her and I know that she can be blunt with me, sometimes I feel that she can go easy on me so as to sound encouraging. Maybe she did that to understand whether I'm sure of my film or not.” 

The actor-director also added that Soha Ali Khan played a huge role in reinstalling Kunal's faith in himself. He said: “She knew that I was carrying a big burden and I was both excited and nervous about it. But I believe in myself too and so, I know that what she feels isn't completely wrong. Madgaon Express was in the right space. I was proud and happy with what I had made.”

“She [Soha Ali Khan' chooses the right words and she voices her thoughts in the right way. Woh bhigaake thappad nahi maarti. She makes me sit down, calms me down and then lovingly tells me if and when I go wrong. That's her way of slapping me (laughs),” Kunal Kemmu said about his bond with Soha Ali Khan.
