After 12 years, two of tinsel town's seasoned actors - Khiladi and Bol Bachchan - are coming together for filmmaker Sajid Nadiadwala's "Housefull 3".

Yes, the third franchise of the super-successful flick is underway and the two actors to whirl up mad fun will be “Housefull” regular Akshay Kumar and a new inmate, Abhishek Bachchan.

It will be helmed by the writer duo Sajid-Farhad's whose debut directorial venture “Entertainment” releases this August 2014.

A source says, "The Housefull franchise is a promising one in the masala entertainment space. Housefull 2 is in the `100-crore club. Sajid plans to keep it going till the time he is able to rope in exciting actor combinations. Also, as long as he is able to find entertaining scripts."

Akshay and Abhishek last starred together in the romantic drama, “Haan Maine Bhi Pyaar Kiya” (2002). Incidentally, Abhishek and Karisma Kapoor, the leading lady of HMBPK, were dating back then.

Although the film couldn't get the cash registers ringing the, we hope the new comedy of errors will certainly strike a gold with the new age audience.
