"Housefull" is mad but not mindless, says Lara Dutta.

Lara told IANS in an interview, "It's not a mindless comedy. It has a tight screenplay. So if you are not following because of all the confusion, you might lose the plot somewhere. It's a big entertainer with great music with great comic talent. We hope we entertain."

"Housefull", which has been directed by Sajid Khan, revolves around Aarush (Akshay Kumar), who believes his bad luck will disappear if he finds true love. In his quest for love, one lie leads to another and different people from various walks of life come together adding more confusion and resulting in total chaos.

Lara further added, "It goes by the literary meaning of it. There is one house crowded with people. One person has three wives and children. These wives also have some complications. Time comes when all family members are together and confusion takes off, and that's what the film is all about."

She said, "I like doing comedy; so most of the films I do are comedy films. Comedy is something that works. Last year I did 'Billu', which was in a different space, 'Blue' was an action film and 'Do Not Disturb' was a comedy. You know you have to pick and find your balance somewhere."

"I would like to take a break from comedy and do something else. I have already short listed what I want to do, but I haven't signed any," she said.

She also said that she was tired of playing a Punjabi girl and that the role of a modern Gujarati woman in "Housefull" was a welcome change. (With Inputs from Agencies)
