GRAPE VINE

Will there be a Housefull reunion?

As days are nearing for the release of the third instalment of 'Housefull', starring Akshay Kumar, Abhishek Bachchan, Riteish Deshmukh, Jacqueline Fernandez, Lisa Haydon and Nargis Fakhri, on June 3, producer-director Sajid Nadiadwala has been flooded by an unusual request. He has been asked to hold a special screening, only for the cast of the previous two instalments.

The "Housefull" franchise has always had a superb ensemble cast, and names that were part of the earlier films, include Deepika Padukone, John Abraham, Asin, Rishi Kapoor, Randhir Kapoor etc. The members of the earlier films were looking forward to 'Housefull 3', and had requested Sajid to arrange for a special screening. The film's spokesman reportedly confirmed, saying, "The teams of the first two instalments are in conversation with Sajid for a screening."
