    Actor Riteish Deshmukh, described by the Bollywood fraternity as one of the most genuine, warmest and craziest of the lot, turned 39 on Sunday. A successful actor and producer, he is looking forward to shoot "Total Dhamaal".
     
     
    "December 7, 2018. The date is fixed. Excited to shoot the third part of this mad mad film 'Total Dhamaal'. Looking forward to working with my friend Ajay Devgn again and thrilled to be working with Madhuri Dixitji and Anil Kapoor sir for the first time. Arshad Warsi and Jaaved Jaaferi, my partners," Riteish tweeted.
     
     
    "Total Dhamaal" is the third film in the comedy entertainer franchise "Dhamaal". It will be directed by Indra Kumar.
     
     
     
     
    "My sixth film with director Indra Kumar and producer Ashok Thakeria (Induji and Ashokji). They are like family to me. The third part of the 'Dhamaal' series is even more mad than the previous ones," added the actor.
     
     
    Anil is also excited about teaming up with Riteish.
     
     
    "He plays a villain and a comedian on-screen with equal mastery, but most importantly, he is one of the warmest and kindest people I know! It's no wonder that he wins hearts on and off-screen! Happy Birthday Riteish. Looking forward to working with you. It's going to be a Total Dhamaal," he tweeted.
