Yami Gautam, Jacqueline Fernandez to join Saif Ali Khan, Arjun Kapoor in Bhoot Police

Jacqueline Fernandez and Yami Gautam have joined the cast of Saif Ali Khan and Arjun Kapoor-starrer Bhoot Police. The film is an adventure comedy to be helmed by Pavan Kirpalani and will be produced by Ramesh Taurani and Akshai Puri.

Director Pavan Kirpalani said, “I am looking forward to working with Jacqueline and Yami. This will be my first collaboration with the entire cast. We need someone to add the craziness to this fun-filled entertainer and both of them will definitely add this magic to the script.”

He also shared his views on the fresh casting of the film, “The script has gone through several changes after Rameshji and Akshai got on board. Saif, Arjun, Jacqueline and Yami perfectly complement each other in the film.”

Talking about the two new cast members, producer Ramesh Taurani said, “From the beginning, we were keen on having Jacqueline and Yami join the team for this film. They are both amazing artists and we are extremely happy to have them on board.”

The team has begun groundwork on the film, which will be largely shot across Dharamsala, Dalhousie and Palampur. “We are consulting experts to plan the safety measures for the team. We aim to wrap 80 per cent of the film during the outdoor schedules. The remaining portions will be shot at a set in Mumbai,” he added.
