After Brothers, Jacqueline Fernandez and Akshay Kumar will be seen in a romantic angle in Sajid Nadiadwala's Housefull 3.

Both actors revealed that they considered the film, which is the third installment of the successful Housefull franchise, to be a stressbuster after Brothers - which they claimed was both physically and emotionally-draining.

In an exclusive interview with Catch, Jacqueline Fernandez opened up about the transition from Brothers to Housefull 3. She said:

"Akshay and I have come out of an emotionally draining film like Brothers. When we shot for Brothers, even though it was one of the most stressful kind of film to be a part of, it was extremely full filling to do something like that. When we finished with Brothers and got onto the sets of Housefull, both Akshay and I hi-fived each other and we decided to be like wild animals on the sets and go completely mental. We literally took the scenes to another level and made complete fools of ourselves."

She also spoke how Akshay Kumar helped her get her comic timing right.

"Akshay Kumar is one actor who is just so good at what he does. This is the first time, I am working opposite him in comedy. I was very new during Housefull 2, so I didn't really get to learn a lot from Akshay. In this film, we already had a great working rapport and Akshay helped me a lot to get the comic timing right. He is one person who will do anything to make his audience laugh. He was so involved in the film making process for the betterment of film and with Akshay I was able to tap into the side of comedy. It was an awesome team of experts in comedy that I was surrounded with."

Housefull 3, directed by Sajid-Farhad, releases on 3 June 2016.
