Revealing how the cast reacted after the inclusion of Sajid Khan’s name in the #MeToo movement and his subsequent ouster from film Chunky Panday added, “It was tough. I think loosing Sajid Khan was the thing that hurt everyone, because it was his baby, he had written this. But hats off to Sajid Nadiadwala that he could pull it off, I think any other producer with that kind of pressure would have folded. We had three big sets standing you have lost one lead actor Nana Patekar, and you have just those two months to complete the film, hats off to him. It was tough, but then nothing is easy in life.”

As for the film, Housefull 4 is directed by Farhad Samji and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala.
