Actor Kriti Sanon says when the #MeToo allegations surfaced against Houseful 4 director Sajid Khan and her co-star Nana Patekar, the team took swift actions as they were focused on not letting it affect the final product. Sajid stepped down from the project following multiple sexual misconduct accusations against him. He was replaced by writer Farhad Samji as the director.

Nana, too, distanced himself from the comedy after being accused of harassment by actor Tanushree Dutta. He was replaced by actor Rana Daggubati.
