Sometime
back,
we
had
reported
that
Akshay
Kumar
is
teaming
with
producer
Sajid
Nadiadwala
for
'Bachchan
Pandey'.
Back
then,
the
makers
were
yet
to
announce
the
leading
lady
and
had
dropped
Khiladi
Kumar's
first
look
from
the
film.
Well,
folks,
the
superstar
has
now
finally
found
his
leading
lady
for
the
film.
As
per
a
Mumbai
Mirror
report,
Kriti
Sanon
will
be
romancing
Akshay
Kumar
in
'Bachchan
Pandey'.
Speaking
about
it,
the
actress
told
the
leading
tabloid,
"I
had
a
blast
working
with
them
(Akshay
Kumar
and
Sajid
Nadiadwala)
in
'Housefull
4',
and
super
excited
that
we
will
be
collaborating
again.
It's
my
third
film
with
Sajid
sir,
and
again,
a
very
entertaining
one."
Talking
about
casting
Kriti
in
'Bachchan
Pandey',
producer
Sajid
Nadiadwala
said,
"Akshay
and
Kriti's
pairing
delighted
the
audience
in
'Housefull
4'.
I
have
seen
her
grow
as
an
actor
since
'Heropanti'
and
I
feel,
she
can
pull
off
this
role
alongside
Akshay."
'Bachchan
Pandey'
will
be
directed
by
Farhad
Samji.
The
director
and
his
team
of
writers
are
currently
giving
the
final
touches
to
the
film
and
soon,
Samji
will
go
on
a
recce.
The
Akshay
Kumar
starrer
will
be
shot
in
real
locations
in
India.
'Bachchan
Pandey'
is
slated
to
hit
the
theatrical
screens
for
Christmas
2020
and
will
lock
horns
with
Aamir
Khan's
'Laal
Singh
Chaddha'.
