: Rahul (Shah Rukh Khan) boards the Chennai Express to fulfill his grandfather’s last wish by immersing his ashes in Rameswaram. On the journey, he helps Meenamma (Deepika Padukone), a don’t's daughter, and accidentally becomes entangled with local South Indian gangsters.

Her performance was highly praised for her comedic timing and her portrayal of a Tamil-accented character.

However, due to a comedic twist of fate, he ends up sharing a compartment with Meena (Deepika Padukone), a runaway daughter of a powerful and dangerous don in the Tamil hinterlands. What follows is a high-octane chase, hilarious cultural misunderstandings, and a blossoming romance.
