“After Heyy Babyy, the trio of Akshay Kumar, Fardeen Khan, and Sajid Nadiadwala is coming together for Housefull 5,” revealed a source close to the development to the publication. “It’s a fun-filled role for Fardeen and the actor is also excited to work again with Akshay after their soon-to-be-released Khel Khel Mein. There were multiple contenders for the role in question, including Arjun Rampal, and it’s Fardeen Khan who is now ready to make an entry in the world of Housefull,” the source added. Interestingly, Fardeen is also starring in Khel Khel Mein alongside Akshay Kumar.
While the male ensemble is complete, the search for the leading ladies is underway. The makers are eyeing top-tier actresses to complement the star-studded cast. The film is set to undergo a significant transformation, with the comic chaos unfolding on a cruise ship. “It's a comic thriller, where one episode brings the house down inside a cruise.
