The cast and crew of Sajid Khan's directorial debut Heyy Babyy! have bonded so unusually well, to the
extent of throwing parties to catch up with each other now that filming is over!
Heyy Babyy! stars Akshay Kumar, Fardeen Khan, Riteish Deshmukh and Vidya Balan, and has been
produced by Sajid Nadiadwala.
Says Sajid Khan, "It was Fardeen's idea to have a wrap-up party at
his bungalow in Juhu. He and Natasha (his wife) organised it." It was an intimate dinner party with about 12
people present, including Sajid Nadiadwala, Sajid Khan, Riteish Deshmukh, Akshay Kumar, writer Milap
Zaveri, Hemal, the cinematographer, the first assistant director and a few more.
Sajid Adds, "We
hung out, cracked jokes and played pool. It was a potluck party. Everyone brought food. Natasha and
Fardeen, who are great cooks, made some really good food. Akshay and Milap got vegetarian dishes. I
brought my appetite!"
Now that Heyy Babyy! is nearly done, Khan is on the lookout for a job again.
He says, "I'm itching to get back to work. I need money. I'm looking forward to doing more TV shows, stage
shows and hosting awards functions and corporate events.
I stopped doing TV for over eight
months and I've missed it. Currently, I'm doing the Haff Hour Laff Hour Show. I started shooting recently."
