Total: ₹ 4.35 cr. #India biz. #Boxoffice.”

He added, “The real test for #MadgaonExpress begins today… There’s no #Buy1Get1 offer today [Sun] and tomorrow [Mon; #Holi], so it will be interesting to see the quantum of growth on these two days.”

The film is about three youngsters who have dreamt of making a trip to Goa since childhood. When they finally make it, they fall into absurd situations filled with drugs, gangsters and cops on their trail.
