Director Sajid Khan says although Housefull 2 is a comedy, shooting for the upcoming film washardly a holiday experience for him as it is his hardest film till date.
"Time and again I hear directors claim that making so and so film was akin to a holiday for them. I never experiencedany such joy during the film."While in Heyy Babyy as well as Housefull I was having a good time during their making, in case of Housefull 2 my concentration has been on ensuring that audience have a good time. This has been my hardest film till date," Sajid said.
The film, sequel to the 2010 Housefull, is also the biggest film ever mounted by producer Sajid Nadiadwala and thedirector said that it is much bigger in all aspects than the first instalment.
Housefull 2 is a must see film. While the screenplay is water tight, the presentation is on a much bigger canvas aswell. In fact the budget here is twice as that of Housefull while the scale is four times bigger," Khan said.
Housefull 2 features actors from the original like Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh alongwith new additions JohnAbraham, Asin, Jacqueline Fernandez, Zarine Khan, Shazahn Padamsee and Shreyas Talpade.
It also stars veteran actors such as Mithun Chakraborty, Randhir Kapoor, Rishi Kapoor and Boman Irani in supporting roles.
"Nadiadwala and I often discussed that this was a huge decision to make a film of this scale and cast in today's times."Fortunately there were no egos amongst my actors as well as crew members due to which we could finish the film intime. With so many actors working for the first time with each other, the film could have gone in the making for a year andhalf," Sajid said.
