We have spent Rs five crore to reconstruct the Burglhey Palace," Producer Sajid Nadiadwala said.The first schedule of 'Housefull 2' was completed in London and the second schedule was supposed to begin from late October.

The Palace has been recreated at the Filmistan Studios in Mumbai. Earlier, Nadiadwala had created an entire town for his film 'Mujhse Shaadi Karogi'. "The set is unbelievably real. I feel I am inside the UK castle. The reason behind putting up a set here was that the action and pyrotechnics required for the film was obviously forbidden in the real castle, as it is a heritage monument," director of the film Sajid Khan said.

'Housefull 2' is a sequel to the super hit comic caper 'Housefull', which was reportedly made with a budget of Rs 45 crore, while it earned over Rs 98 crore at the box office.
