Director
duo
Raj
Nidimoru
and
Krishna
DK,
who
are
looking
forward
to
the
release
of
their
zombie
film
Go
Goa
Gone,
think
that
having
an
established
actor
like
Saif
Ali
Khan
will
help
them
reach
a
wider
audience.
Go
Goa
Gone
is
being
promoted
as
India's
first
zombie
film
and
will
see
Saif
as
a
Russian
mafia,
who
is
also
a
zombie-hunter.
"By
having
a
superstar
mainly
we
will
be
able
to
reach
out
to
more
people.
Somebody
sitting
somewhere
far
away
will
come
to
watch
the
film
because
of
Saif.
But
the
film
also
depends
on
its
content
and
then
on
Saif," the
director
duo
told
PTI.
"For
this
film,
we
felt
the
difference
of
having
a
superstar.
I
think
a
superstar
initially
helps
in
bringing
audience
to
theatres
for
a
film
like
this,"
he
said.
Saif's
new
look
in
the
film
has
taken
many
by
surprise.
The
actor
is
seen
in
an
all-blonde
look,
beefed
up,
got
tattoos
painted
on
his
body
and
learnt
to
speak
Russian
language.
"He
is
a
Russian
mafia,
arranges
rave
party.
So
Saif
has
been
given
that
kind
of
look...beefed
up,
blonde
look,
tattoos,
etc.
To
try
this
look,
the
credit
goes
to
Saif
as
he
had
the
guts
to
do
something
that
is
radically
different,"
the
duo
said.
The
Nawab
of
Patuadi
was
the
first
and
only
choice
for
the
director
duo.
Co-produced
by
Saif
Ali
Khan,
Go
Goa
Gone
is
a
story
about
two
friends
played
by
Kunal
Khemu
and
Vir
Das,
who
travel
to
Goa
with
another
friend
Anand
Tiwari.
When
the
trailer
of
the
film
was
launched
online,
it
got
over
two
million
hits
and
both
the
directors
are
quite
happy
about
it.
"When
we
launched
the
trailer,
we
were
anxious
as
the
concept
is
new.
Our
friends
have
liked
it
but
we
were
waiting
for
the
reaction
of
outsiders.
But
we
are
now
really
happy
looking
at
the
response.
It
is
very
encouraging,"
the
duo
said.
"Initially,
the
film
is
a
comedy.
There
is
an
edge
in
the
film
and
that
is
brought
by
zombies.
All
those
who
know
about
zombies
can
enjoy
the
film,
while
those
who
have
no
clue
about
it
will
also
enjoy.
There
is
no
need
to
learn
or
know
what
zombies
are,"
they
added.
