Now, if this Pinkvilla report is to be believed, Jacqueline Fernandez and Disha Patani have joined Akshay, Sanjay and Arshad in this Ahmed Khan directorial.
“Jacqueline Fernandez and Disha Patani have signed on to play the female lead of this comic caper. Every Welcome film has a conflict around the female protagonist and this one too will stay true to the world of this franchise. Both Jacqueline and Disha will bring in the right amount of confusion to the story.”
