April 28, 2010 (Sampurn Wire): Sajid Nadiadwala is confident about ‘Housefull’. After all the film reunites him with his buddies like Sajid Khan, Akshay Kumar and Riteish Deshmukh with whom he has shared a great personal and professional rapport over the years. As the film maker says in his own words - ‘Yahan toh dil mile hue hain!’
“Exactly”, smiles Sajid, “First film can be an accident ki chaliye aapne apna kaam kar liya; after that if you come together then it speaks volumes for that person. This second instance is always a choice because agar aap doosri baar kisi se mil raha ho toh matlab there has been something worthwhile. This is the reason why after ‘Heyy Babyy’, we all are together again with ‘Housefull’.”
It is not just this new team with whom Sajid has shared good relationship over the years. There are many other prominent names with whom Sajid has continued to make films repeatedly.
“Whether it is Raj Kanwar, David Dhawan, Akshay Kumar or Salman Khan; we have worked with each other repeatedly. I am in the business of film making but then relationships count in a big way for me as well”, says Sajid.
Meanwhile, he continues to be extremely fond of Sajid Khan who didn’t just turn out to be the first debutant director ever to deliver a 50 crores film (’Heyy Babyy’) but is also super confident that ‘Housefull’ would at the least double these collections.
“Mr. (Sajid) Khan is one of those guys who does his job in an envelope of humour. We never come to know about his exercise of working because he is such a fantastic captain of the ship. There were times when actors were not shooting for 10 days at stretch but he still used to keep them involved in something productive”, details Sajid.
He adds with a smile, “Basic feather in the cap of a technician is when he repeats the producer and vice versa; this means that there is a favourable relationship building. Sajid is someone who does the producer’s job of keeping things in check. I have worked with many film makers but effort reduces by 70-80% when Sajid Khan is directing a film.”
