Review And Box office
State Express is cited by Rajadhyaksha and Willemen as a "successful film" doing well at the box-office. The main draw of the film was a "performing gorilla" and Sardar Akhtar's songs and performance. The film was one of the "best stunt films" from Bhatt, who normally made mythologicals.[1]
