Actor Ali Fazal says he is excited to be passing on the baton
to actors Sonakshi Sinha and Jassi Gill to take forward the "Happy Bhag Jayegi"
story.
At the moment, Ali is busy shooting for the sequel "Happy Phirr
Bhag Jayegi" in Malaysia.
"This is my first time in Malaysia. It was
quite the start with my flight losing one engine almost seconds before take off
from Singapore to Kuala Lumpur and then losing my bags which arrived three days
later," Ali said in a statement to IANS.
"I guess the chaos of 'Happy
Phirr Bhag Jayegi' infected the air traffic. I am excited to be passing the
baton to Sonakshi and Jassi in part two."
"Happy Bhag Jayegi", featuring
Diana Penty, Ali Fazal and Abhay Deol, was released in 2016. The romantic comedy
narrated the story of a girl named Happy, who runs away from her wedding and
reaches Pakistan by mistake.
Diana features in the sequel too. She is
joined by actress Sonakshi Sinha whose character also runs away from her
wedding. Mudassar Aziz, who helmed the first part, is back on the director's
chair for the sequel.
Made under the banner Eros International and Aanand
L Rai's Colour Yellow Productions, the film will also feature Abhay Deol and
Jimmy Shergill. "Happy Phirr Bhag Jayegi" is set to release on August 24.
Talking about Malaysia shooting schedule, Ali said: "We are shooting on
outdoor locations and there are lots of action sequences and chases. And this
time, it's a greater ensemble than before. Apart from Diana, it was lovely to
reunite with Jimmy and Piyush Mishra.
"They are the heart of this film.
Mudassar is a gifted writer and director and I hope our bond delivers more films
together."
