Lisa Haydon, who was last in the third installment of 'Housefull 3' will be seen as the female lead in Abhishek Pathak's upcoming film titled 'Athithi in London.' There were rumours that Diana Penty will star opposite Kartik Aaryan, who is the male lead in the film. But it was Lisa, who bagged the role as the makers wanted a girl bought up in abroad but of Indian origin.

It is a love story of a London-based couple with Paresh Rawal stepping as troublesome guest. According to a source, "Kartik is surprised by a middleaged couple who are his relatives and are in the Queen's City for some work. While Pareshji plays the male lead, talks are on with Supriya Pathakji to enact the role of his wife."

The source also adds, "Lisa plays a London girl and came on board this week. Kartik and Paresh were signed much earlier and the team was on the lookout for an Indian girl born and brought up abroad. Lisa fit the bill perfectly. Her character takes on odd jobs to make a living and afford a decent lifestyle in the expensive city. She is expected to shoot between the first week of September and mid-October in London and its outskirts. The atithi's arrival causes an upheaval in the household as the couple is already facing a cash crunch."
