While Farah is under extreme pressure for doing it differently, since comparisons are likely to be drawn with Munni..., Malaika is pretty sure that the song will be a chartbuster. “Munni... is iconic. So, I wouldn’t like to draw any comparisons and would request others to adhere to this policy.

But, at the same time, Anakali Disco Chali is superb. It’s sexier and more modern in its look and feel. Munni was desi and rustic,” argues Malaika, who has already shot the song.“Sajid-Wajid have created an excellent track. Farah has choreographed it really well. It has the entire male star cast of the film in it,” she adds.

Housefull 2 toplines a dozen male actors including Akshay Kumar, Shreyas Talpade, John Abraham, Riteish Deshmukh, Mithun Chakraborty, Rishi Kapoor, Randhir Kapoor and Boman Irani. Zarine Khan, Asin Thottumkal, Shazahn Padamsee and Jacqueline Fernandez are the leading ladies.

Farah seconds her brother and Housefull 2’s director. The mother of triplets adds, “Malaika and I have a decent track record. We have done three songs together, and all of them have been successful. So, the pressure this time to deliver was high. I hope that this song also turns out to be a huge hit like our previous chart-toppers, ‘Chaiya chaiya... (Dil Se... 1997), Kaal dhamaal (Kaal, 2005), and ‘Munni badnaam hui....’ It will justify our hardwork.”
