Producer Sajid Nadiadwala has made a major announcement that has immediately caught the attention of Bollywood fans. Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment has entered into a three-film production deal with Australia, and one of the most exciting projects included in the collaboration is Heyy Babyy 2, the sequel to the popular 2007 comedy.
The announcement was made on September 3 during the visit of New South Wales Premier Chris Minns to Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment's Mumbai office. The new collaboration will see three upcoming productions from the banner being filmed in Australia, strengthening the production house's long-standing association with the country.
Heyy Babyy 2 to Return to Australia
The biggest talking point from the announcement is undoubtedly Heyy Babyy 2. The original Heyy Babyy, released in 2007, featured Akshay Kumar, Vidya Balan, Riteish Deshmukh and Fardeen Khan and was partly shot in Australia.
Now, almost two decades later, the franchise is heading back to the same country for its sequel. The return to Australia gives the upcoming film a direct connection with the original movie and marks an interesting new chapter for the franchise.
However, several details about Heyy Babyy 2 are still under wraps. The makers have not yet announced the complete storyline, release date or confirmed whether the original cast will return.

Sajid Nadiadwala Strengthens Australia Connection
Sajid Nadiadwala has described Australia as an important destination for his upcoming productions. The producer's team has previously worked in the country and, according to the announcement, had a positive experience with its locations, production infrastructure and local support.
The new three-film agreement will allow Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment to take three upcoming projects to Australia for filming.
The collaboration is being developed with the support of Sydney-based TEMPLE and comes at a time when India and Australia are looking to strengthen cooperation in the film and entertainment sectors.
Chris Minns Welcomes the Bollywood Partnership
New South Wales Premier Chris Minns visited Nadiadwala's Mumbai office as part of his India trip and welcomed the production deal.
Minns highlighted the importance of having a major Indian production house choose Australia for three upcoming films. He also pointed to the long relationship between Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment and the country, with Heyy Babyy being one of the projects that helped establish that connection nearly 20 years ago.
The Premier also noted that such productions can create opportunities for Australian film crews, creative professionals and local businesses. At the same time, filming Indian movies in the region can showcase Australia's locations to a huge Indian audience.
Will Akshay Kumar Return in Heyy Babyy 2?
One of the biggest questions surrounding Heyy Babyy 2 is whether Akshay Kumar and the other original stars will return.
The first film featured Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh and Fardeen Khan as three bachelors whose lives change dramatically after a baby is left at their doorstep. Vidya Balan played the female lead, while Sajid Khan directed the movie.
At present, there is no official confirmation that Akshay, Vidya, Riteish or Fardeen will reprise their roles in the sequel. The director's return has also not been confirmed.
What Made Heyy Babyy Popular?
Released in 2007, Heyy Babyy combined comedy and emotional drama around the story of three carefree bachelors who suddenly find themselves responsible for an infant.
The film became popular with mainstream audiences and remains one of the recognisable comedy titles from that period. Its Australian backdrop was also an important part of its visual identity.
The sequel's decision to return to Australia could therefore give the franchise a sense of continuity while allowing the filmmakers to create a new story.
Three Films Will Be Shot in Australia
While Heyy Babyy 2 is the only project publicly identified so far, Sajid Nadiadwala has confirmed that three upcoming films from his production house will be shot in Australia.
The other two projects have not yet been revealed. This means the deal could bring more announcements from Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment in the coming months.
The partnership also reflects the production house's growing interest in international shooting locations and collaborations. With Australia's film infrastructure, locations and local talent pool, the country is expected to play a larger role in the banner's upcoming productions.
Heyy Babyy 2 Creates Early Buzz
Although there is still limited information available about the sequel, the announcement itself has generated excitement because Heyy Babyy 2 brings back a familiar Bollywood franchise after nearly two decades.
Fans will now be waiting for details about the cast, director, storyline and release date. The biggest mystery remains whether the original stars will reunite for the sequel or whether the franchise will introduce a completely new cast.
For now, Sajid Nadiadwala has confirmed one thing: Heyy Babyy is officially returning, and Australia will once again be part of its journey.
