After the success of "Housefull 3," Akshay Kumar will soon be seen in "Housefull 4." The makers of the franchise have confirmed that "Housefull 4" will be made very soon.

"It is a good franchise. Definitely we will be doing 'Housefull 4' very soon," PTI quoted "Housefull 3" producer Sajid Nadiadwala as saying when asked about the possibility of another instalment of the series.

However, Akshay asserted that preparing the script of such a movie takes time and "Housefull 4" will take around one-and-half-year to begin. "We will sit and talk about it. It will take time. There was a gap of nearly four years between 'Housefull 2' and 'Housefull 3.' The script takes a lot of time. It is not an easy task to assemble everyone in one home. You need a strong reason for that," the agency quoted Akshay as saying.

"So, it is not an easy subject. It is difficult to make. It will take one, one-and-half-year to begin," the actor added. "Housefull 3" has been having a wonderful run at the box office, in spite of the negative critic reviews. Directed by Sajid-Farhad, the romantic-comedy flick stars Akshay, Abhishek Bachchan, Riteish Deshmukh, Nargis Fakhri, Jacqueline Fernandez and Lisa Haydon.

Akshay started the year with "Airlift" that turned out to be successful, both commercially and critically. Now, the actor's second movie in 2016 also is a box office winner. Akshay has a number of upcoming movies including "Rustom," "Hera Pheri 3" and "Namastey England," among others.
