One would have thought that with as many as 18 top-line actors on board, Sajid Nadiadwala produced 'Housefull 2' would be akin to one big vacation. More so since the film has been shot in some exotic locations at U.K. as well as Thailand. The fact remains though that this is far from truth. For the entire cast and crew there are fun and frolic moments for sure but at the end of the day, director Sajid Khan has announced loud and clear that he means business.

When Sajid shot 'Heyy Babyy', he was just starting off and though that film too was a multi starrer, he mixed it with a lot of fun. Moreover due to the personal rapport that he shared with Akshay, Riteish Deshmukh as well as Fardeen Khan, the entire shooting experience was an amalgamation of work and fun. This was the case in 'Housefull' as well which boasted of an even bigger starcast and a larger scale with Arjun, Lara and Deepika joining in, says a crew member.

Circa 2011 and while Sajid continues to ensure that fun never subsides when he is calling the shots, he is conscious of the expectations around 'Housefull 2'. Since everyone is waiting to see how big a success does his third film work out to be, Sajid is motivating his wide bunch of actors to come up with their best ever.

Everyone out there right from Akshay, Riteish, John, Shreyas to Asin, Jacqueline, Zarine and Shazahn understand how much 'Housefull 2' means to him. Even veteran actors like Rishi Kapoor, Mithun Chakravorty and Randhir Kapoor can sense the kind of urgency that Sajid is encouraging on the sets. Yes, they do have their fair share of fun on location but are dead serious about their work as well. It is not just leisure and pleasure trip for them as 'Housefull 2' is indeed serious business for all involved, says Sajid Nadiadwala.

Adds Akshay, When you work with Sajid Khan, it is far from just a holiday experience. He is full-on involved day and night into the making of his films and as an actor there are no excuses allowed when he is calling the shots. Sorry folks, but the film is not a vacation for anyone out here. We are working hard.

Well, we would certainly wait for the results to come when the film releases all over on 5th April next year.
