Filmmaker Sajid Khan and actor Akshay Kumar are coming together for Housefull 4 this year. The fourth instalment of the super-hit franchise is set to go on floors in 2018 and is scheduled for a Diwali 2019 release.
We know that Akshay Kumar and Riteish Deshmukh are going to be a part of the film yet again but the big question remains which three actresses will be signed to play the lead.
According to BollywoodHungama sources, Parineeti Chopra, Disha Patani and Kiara Advani are the top runners for the film. Miss Chopra is riding high on the success of Diwali 2018 release Golmaal Again and is expected to team up with Akshay Kumar for this one. Disha-Kiara-Parineeti have never been seen together in a film and that seems like a fresh combination to explore for this Housefull 4. Report also suggest that John Abraham, who was last seen in Housefull 2 is likely to return to the franchise. Makers are also keen to cast Sanjay Dutt in the film.
DNAAfterHrs earlier reported that producer Sajid Nadiadwala and superstar Akshay Kumar are pulling out all the stops for Housefull 4. This film has become an obsession with the duo, who are also neighbours. Sources say whenever the two meet, even informally; they come up with punch lines for the Sajid Khan directorial.
Akki and Sajid (Nadiadwala) have also used their charm and persuasion powers to get Farhad Samji — the screenplay and dialogue writer of several hit comedy franchises including Housefull and Golmaal — to come on board and pen this fourth instalment. “Farhad needed a little bit of persuasion,’’ says our source. “He directed Housefull 3 with his brother Sajid Samji. They wrote the dialogues for it and Housefull 2. After their split, Farhad, who will now work independently, has been signed by Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment as a writer-director for two projects. However, in the case of Housefull 4, he will only pen the screenplay and dialogues.” Incidentally, the story of this reincarnation drama has been written by Sajid Nadiadwala. Set in two eras, one of which is close to the time in which Baahubali was based, it will be mounted on a mammoth budget. An insider says, “Plans are afoot to shoot that era on as lavish a scale as the Baahubali franchise.” It seems Akshay and Sajid are leaving no stone unturned to make Housefull 4 a visual extravaganza.
