Not one to despair that some of his productions didn’t click at the box office, producer Sajid Nadiadwala is gearing up for a new slate of movies. Having announced his plans of releasing Housefull 5 (HF5) next Diwali, the filmmaker has begun prep for the multi-starrer comedy, led by franchise regulars, Akshay Kumar and Riteish Deshmukh. Like the previous installments, the fifth outing will also be extensively filmed in London. Sajid is looking to up the ante, not just in terms of content and cast, but also in terms of production value and locations. The filmmaker is apparently planning to spend about R400 crore on HF5 which will also see previous cast members in principal parts. Moreover, the ace producer is also slated to start the fourth edition of his action thriller, Baaghi, with Tiger Shroff reprising the protagonist Ronnie. Undeterred by the pandemic cutting short Baaghi 3’s run in cinemas, Sajid has big plans to take the thrills a few notches higher with Tiger’s novel action moves in Baaghi 4, which will be shot across Saudi Arabia. Asserting that his journey in the movies has always been about giving the best experience to cinegoers, Sajid says, “We’ve built strong relationships with the UK and Saudi Arabia, making these places feel like a second home for our shoots. Our commitment to entertain our viewers remains strong as ever with our upcoming movies.”
