Housefull 2 is a sequel to the 2010 movie Housefull. This one too is being directed by Sajid Khan. It will be a romantic comedy; well don’t have high expectation as we already know what sort of movies does Sajid Khan make and his level of comedy.

Housefull 2 brings back the some of the previous cast like Akshay kumar, Ritiesh Deshmukh and Boman Irani but has many new additions aswell. Well frankly the list of new additions is never ending so let us not talk about it. However, Housefull 2 has been in news for all the wrong reasons of late. The sequel was announced by the Sajid Nadiadwala way back in September 2010, but the shoot started in June 2011. Meanwhile there were a lot changes being made in the cast crew.

Firstly Asin Thottumkal replaced Deepika Padukone for the title role. Then the trio of music directors Shankar – Ehsaan – Loy replaced the duo Sajid – Wajid, who composed the music for the prequel. Now recently, industry insiders have confirmed that Akshay Kumar’s character in the film, Aarush is comicly inspired by the character of James Bond and so the producers of the film have booked an action set in Hollywood for a sequence to be shot there. The movie is mainly being shot in London, Peterborough and other foreign locations.

There are many other controversies surrounding this movie; one of them being the link-up between Sajid Khan and Jacqueline Fernandez. It was reported that have been hanging around together a lot and it seems that they have developed a certain fondness for each other. Just to mention that Jacqueline even did and item number in the prequel to this movie. Talking about items numbers, Malaika Arora Khan is all set to do an item number in this upcoming film.

Housefull 2 is yet to release and it’s a long time from now, but all we can hope for is that it doesn’t torture us the way the previous one did.
