Sajid Nadiadwala's Bachchan Pandey will roll in January and continue till March. It marks the actor's 10th collaboration with his producer-buddy.

"Akshay, along with actress Kriti Sanon, director Farhad Samji and the rest of the unit will fly to Jaisalmer in a charter for a marathon schedule of over 2 months during which they will be shooting in real locations. Last month, the production team secured all the requisite permissions and taken care of all the government guidelines and locked the shooting locations," revealed a source. Akshay, Sajid, Kriti and Farhad's previous collaboration, the 2019 period-comedy Housefull 4, was also shot in the Golden City and the source added that several of that film's crew are on board for Bachchan Pandey as well.
