'Kabul Express' traverses a different path. It's meant to be a sort of thriller but unfortunately does not keep you on the edge of your seat. Most people would be bored while watching this film. The only redeeming bit is the post-Taliban view of Afghanistan. There's also a bit of Paki-bashing in the film.

Now for the story. It's the story of two Indians (John Abraham and Arshad Warsi), one American (American actress Linda Arsenio), one Afghani (Afghani actor Hanif Hum Ghum), and one Pakistani (Pakistani actor Salman Shahid) coming together and what transpires between them in the next 48 hours.

Kabul Express' is set in post 9/11 Afghanistan where the American bombing has destroyed the Taliban regime and the Taliban soldiers are trying to escape to Pakistan to avoid the wrath of the Afghans.

Jai Kapoor (Arshad Warsi) and Suhel Khan (John Abraham), two television reporters from India, have entered Afghanistan, to get a unique story and interview with a Talibani. Helping them in their pursuit is their Afghan guide, translator and driver Khyber (Hanif Hum Ghum) in his Toyota Jeep, Kabul Express.
