Bachchan Pandey actress Kriti Sanon just shared an update on the film in the form of a brand new poster that features her along with her co-star Akshay Kumar. In the poster, the duo can be seen posing together and Akshay Kumar sports an intense look. Sharing the poster, Kriti Sanon wrote: "And it's a schedule wrap for me with Akshay Kumar for Sajid Nadiadwala's Bachchan Pandey, directed by Farhad Samji." Bachchan Pandey is Kriti Sanon's second project with Akshay Kumar after the 2019 film Housefull 4, which was also directed by Farhad Samji.
In her post, Kriti Sanon added, "One of the bestest, most fun and memorable schedules I have had so far. Time just flew and we ended up making a film in between the echoing laughters, gaming sessions and never-ending lunches and dinners as we all became one family! It was surely the saddest goodbye from the beautiful Suryagarh Palace but we shall meet again soon! Can't wait to see you guys in cinema."
