Model-turned-actress Lisa Haydon is excited to be a part of the Shaukeen remake and says that working in the film has been a learning experience for her.

Seasoned actors such as Anupam Kher, Annu Kapoor and Paresh Rawal along with Akshay Kumar will be seen in the film, which revolves around three lecherous old men.

“I am extremely excited about Shaukeen. Working with all the veterans like Anupam Kher, Piyushji, Annu Kapoor was super fun. It was a learning experience for me and I feel blessed to be part of [the] Shaukeen remake,” Haydon said.

“I have almost finished shooting for the film... I used to feel so fresh working for the film. It’s like an absolute fun time,” she added.

Basu Chatterjee directed the original, which came out in 1982 featuring Ashok Kumar, A.K. Hangal, Utpal Dutt, Mithun Chakraborty and Rati Agnihotri. Abhishek Sharma helms the new version.

Haydon made her acting debut with Aisha and also featured in Rascals, but she won appreciation for her work in Queen, which had Kangana Ranaut in the lead role.

For the Shaukeen remake, Haydon has dubbed herself. She added: “I will not let anyone dub for me.”
