Grand Masti on hold for Riteish

In an industry imagined to be driven only by opportunism, it's heartening to look some people actually set aside their very own interests for emotional reasons.

The sequel to Masti entitled Grand Masti was scheduled to take off earlier this week. But now as a result of Riteish Deshmukh's father Vilasrao Deshmukh's critical health condition, the film's commencement have been get rid of by a couple of days.

Says a source with regards to the project, "Grand Masti, the sequel to Masti was within the writing process for the last one and a half years. Finally writer Milap Zaveri cracked an idea and scripted the sequel. The film brings back the Riteish-Aftab Shivdasani-Vivek Oberoi trio, along side four new girls. Grand Masti was alleged to kick start this week. Then Riteish's father fell ill. He cannot be expected to behave funny at a time like this."

A suggestion that the film take off without Riteish was also recommend. But producer Ashok Thakeria and director Indra Kumar refused, arguing that a comedy is a contented occasion and therefore all of the actors had to be comfortable.

When contacted producer Thakeria said, "WE ARE HOPING to begin shooting from the 9th. We've waited 8 years to begin the sequel. So slightly of delay isn't a large deal."
