About Paying Guests

Paying Guests Movie is a Bollywood film starring Shreyas Talpade, Javed Jaffrey, Aashish Chaudhary and Vatsal Seth in the lead roles. It is directed by Paritosh Painter under Subhash Ghai's Mukta Arts banner. A comedy film revolving around four close friends who reside together in Pattaya, it borrows the basic plot from 1966 B&W comedy movie Biwi Aur Makaan, directed by Hrishikesh Mukherjee which was also remade in Marathi as Ashi Hi Banwa Banwi in 1988 and in Kannada as Olu Saar Bari Olu in 2003.

Shooting started in the second week of April 2008. Riya Sen was originally offered Neha Dhupia's role, Aarti Gupta, but declined and instead chose the role as Jayesh's melodramatic girlfriend, Alpita. A sequel, Paying Guests 2, is in production and will take place against the backdrop of a beauty pageant.
