Pooja Hegde is currently stationed in London for the first schedule of Sajid Nadiadwala's Housefull 4. The actress had to shoot for a song in the film and that got her extremely excited. Reason being, it was to be choreographed by the ace choreographer and filmmaker Farah Khan. For Pooja Hegde, it was "the most incredible experience". It was a full house with Akshay Kumar, Kriti Sanon, Bobby Deol, Pooja Hegde, Riteish Deshmukh and Kriti Kharbanda grooving to Farah's cues. But what gave the song its twist were doppelgangers of the royal family.

Sharing her experience of working with the ace, she says, "Farah Khan is great fun to work with. It was a fun shoot. The song is a catchy number and by the end of it, the entire unit was singing along. I was working with Farah for the first time and really looking forward to it."

"I have learnt Bharatanatyam for around 10 years and it definitely helps. Also, Bollywood dance is not a different genre, we do incorporate a lot of other dance forms. It's all about just enjoying the music. For this film, I am also working on my comic timing, as comedy is serious business," she adds.

The fourth installment of the franchise had gone on floors a few weeks ago and has already wrapped its first schedule. Wrapping the first schedule of 25 days in London, the team celebrated the wrap of the first schedule by cutting two cakes and will now fly down to Rajasthan for the next schedule. Announcing the wrap, the makers Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment took to Twitter to share," And it's a wrap for the 1st schedule of #SajidNadiadwala's #Housefull4 #LondonDiaries (sic)."

Sajid Khan, who had directed the first two films in the Housefull franchise would return to direct the fourth installment in the series. Revolving around the theme of reincarnation, the film follows a non-linear narrative and all the flashback sequences will be shot in Rajasthan. A lavishly mounted set is being built in Mumbai for the finale. Chunky Panday, Johnny Lever, Boman Irani and Nana Patekar are also a part of this instalment.

Produced by Sajid Nadiadwala under the banner Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment, Housefull 4 will release around Diwali, 2019.
