In a recent interview, Alia said that "Badrinath Ki Dulhania" is not a continuation of the first part, but it is a franchise. "The film is not a sequel, it's not a continuation. It's a franchise. It's a different story, it has another person and dulhania with a common thread that's a love story," Alia told the Press Trust of India.
The film went on floors on May 3 and it is being directed by Shashank Khaitan and produced by Karan Johar's Dharma Productions. The first schedule of the film has been shot in Mumbai and the team will also reportedly shoot in Kota and Jhansi.
The first schedule has recently been wrapped up as Varun shared a picture with the team on social media. It is said the actors will be presented in a different avatar, and they will speak in a North Indian accent. The film will be a fresh story set against a rural backdrop up North.

Prachi Desai's sister Esha Desai forced to quit film by husband; leaves 'Missing on a Weekend' shoot midway

Actress Prachi Desai's sister Esha Desai was set to make her Bollywood debut with Abhishek Jawakar's "Missing on a Weekend," but her dreams could not turn into reality owing to her husband and in-laws.
Prachi reportedly suggested Abhishek to cast Esha in his upcoming movie and being a close friend of the actress, the director roped in the newcomer. However, Esha backed out from the project after shooting the first schedule, leaving the filmmaker in limbo.
Esha had completed the first leg of shooting for "Missing on a Weekend" in Goa, but just before the start of the second schedule in Gorai, Prachi's sister informed Abhishek that she cannot continue shooting as her husband and in-laws did not approve of her being an actress.
"However, two days before we kicked off the second schedule, Esha called me to inform that she couldn't shoot anymore. She said she was facing troubles in her marriage and that her in-laws were unhappy about her working in a film. I couldn't bring up the contract or money because she was a friend. It was extremely stressful," Abhishek told Mumbai Mirror.
Nevertheless, the director was lucky enough to find a replacement in Khushboo Kamal, with whom he shot the Gorai schedule and also reshot the first schedule. "We wrapped up the Gorao schedule and went back to Goa in February to re-shoot at Vagator, Calangute beaches among other locations. We lost a lot of money since we had to bring back the crew of 140 people," he added.
The director, who is also the co-producer of "Missing on a Weekend," further said that he has no regrets for the change in the cast as the reshot portions turned out to be better than the first shoot.

'Housefull 3' movie review by audience: Live update

Directors Sajid-Farhad's Bollywood movie "Housefull 3," starring Akshay Kumar, Abhishek Bachchan, Riteish Deshmukh, Jacqueline Fernandez, Nargis Fakhri and Lisa Haydon, has received mixed reviews from audience.
"Housefull 3" is a light-hearted romantic comedy film, which is the third instalment in the "Housefull" film series. The movie revolves around the story of a father who doesn't want his three daughters to get married. How three men try to convince him and marry his daughters forms the crux of the movie.
Audience say there is nothing big to boast about the story of "Housefull 3," which has been brought to screens a few times in the past. But the director duo has tried to make comedy scenes and WhatsApp jokes. The first half of the film keeps viewers engaged with some comedy scenes, but the second half has a slow-paced narration, which appears boring. However, the climax is good and wraps up the things well.
The viewers say Akshay Kumar, Abhishek Bachchan, Riteish Deshmukh, Jacqueline Fernandez, Nargis Fakhri and Lisa Haydon have delivered good performances in "Housefull 3." Their comedy timing and sparkling chemistry are the highlights of the movie. Boman Irani, Johnny Lever, Jackie Shroff and Chunkey Pandey have done justice to their roles and their performances are among the assets of the film.
"Housefull 3" has been produced by Sajid Nadiadwala under his banner Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment and it has rich production elements. Music, picturisation, punch dialogues, selection of beautiful locales and costumes are the attractions on the technical front, add the viewers.
