Here's what transpired at the trailer launch of 'Housefull 3'

Akshay Kumar took the driver's seat with producer Sajid Nadiadwala in the passenger's seat when the duo drove the 'Housefull 3' cast, including Abhishek Bachchan, Riteish Deshmukh, Jacqueline Fernandez, Nargis Fakhri, Lisa Haydon, Boman Irani, Jackie Shroff and Chunkey Pandey, to a suburban multiplex for the first trailer on Sunday evening.

Riteish and Boman took over as the hosts and welcomed Akshay on stage.
The 48-year-old actor was in a jubilant mood and introduced Chunky with a joke, 'Housefull 1' had a cheetah and a monkey, Part 2 had a python and a crocodile and Part 3 has...." And Chunky made his way up to entertain the audience with his Aakhri Pasta accent from Part 2. Ouch! Riteish, who is currently shooting for Banjo with Nargis, looked in character, sporting two ponytails, a la SRK from Happy New Year. Nargis's dress was cut a little too high for comfort but she sportingly joined in on the naach gaana with Jackie pretty in red and Lisa sexy in a white cropped top and silver pants.

As the first song, 'Pyar Ki Maa Ki' got an encore enthusiastic Akshay and energetic Riteish clambered on stage to shake a leg and butt with the gals. Only Abhishek, who had suffered a slipped disc, refused to join the gig or even rap a few lines given that he plays a rapper in the film. Bad boy! He's the new entrant in the House and admitted that he was nervous about joining Akki and RD who are known for their comic timing. 'I worked hard but it was fun," he reiterated.
