Jacqueline Fernandez joins cast of Akshay Kumar’s ‘Bachchan Pandey’

Jacqueline Fernandez has been named the latest star to join the cast of Akshay Kumar’s ‘Bachchan Pandey’.

The actress joins Kriti Sanon and Arshad Warsi, who have already been confirmed as a part of Sajid Nadiadwala’s big project.

Fernandez said, “I was very new to the industry when I did the ‘Dhanno’ song in Housefull for Nadiad and our bond & friendship goes way back then. I am elated to be back working with him and Bachchan Pandey will mark our 8th film together after Judwaa and Housefull series. I can’t wait to reunite with Akshay once again. It’s a crazy mad ride always with him and I am sure we will have a blast together.

She added, “I’m looking forward to begin the shoot in January with them. I can’t spill the beans on my character yet but I can tell you it’s a totally different avatar. This film will be an altogether different experience for us as we would be shooting in the new normal owing to the on-going pandemic but as we say the show must go on. With the precautions and norms for COVID-19 which would be taken care of, I am extremely excited to be at my ‘Happy Place’ with Sajid, Akshay and have a gala time.”

She further stated, “I have just finished shooting for a film while the other one is going on and I’m set to roll for Bachchan Pandey soon post which I’ll be back with Nadiad directing Salman and Myself for Kick2.”
