MUMBAI: The Vande Bharat Express train is set to make its on-screen debut soon with the Western Railway for the first time allowing the use of the semi-high-speed train for a commercial production and shooting conducted at Mumbai Central station on Wednesday, officials said.
Award-winning filmmaker Shoojit Sircar became the first director to use the Vande Bharat Express train for the shoot, conducted at platform number five of the Mumbai Central Station- one of the major railway termini of the Western Railway.
Explaining the rationale behind their decision, WR officials said one of the two Vande Bharat trains operated on the Mumbai-Ahmedabad route does not run on Wednesday. It remains parked in the station yard or the car shed for maintenance.
