Asked why Sajid Khan didn’t direct Housefull 3, Nadiadwala said: “Sajid Khan didn’t want to because he was busy with Himmatwala then. Besides, this is a difficult genre to write also; after sometime they say we don’t want to because the genre gets saturated so it becomes difficult to edit and make a trailer for this film. Usually, a writer after one or two films gets into a saturation mode.”
