Team Welcome Back including Anil Kapoor and Nana Patekar are seen here catching a screening of their film. Welcome Back is said to be a fun ride with a lot of laughs and entertainment. Filmmaker Anees Bazmee said that while "buffoonery" with nudity and double entendre dialogues is easy, scoring a hit with "comedy" is "serious" business.

"Comedy is a very serious business, and I may say that all the comedy films that I have made till date, I've written them when I was not in good mood or very angry," Bazmee, who has been in the film industry for over 35 years, told IANS on phone from Mumbai.

"Writing comedy is a very difficult job, but buffoonery is very easy! One can write it whenever...I don't like to make the buffoonery kind of films. I don't believe in shortcuts like putting lines that have a double meaning or to show nudity," he said.

The filmmaker, who has also written movies like "Raju Chacha", "King Uncle" and "Pyar To Hona Hi Tha", in fact, prefers to make movies which calls for a family audience.

"I don't believe in that (buffoonery), I only believe in making films which I can see with my wife and daughter... I just want my films to be more family-oriented, which families can watch together," he added.

Bazmee's "Welcome Back" is a sequel to his 2008 super hit Akshay Kumar starrer "Welcome". It features an ensemble cast, including John Abraham, Shruti Haasan, Naseeruddin Shah, Anil Kapoor, Nana Patekar, Paresh Rawal and Dimple Kapadia.
