May 28, 2025: Its Housefull; If there’s one franchise that knows how to take madness to majestic levels, this is it. And with Housefull 5, director Tarun Mansukhani takes the baton of bonkers and runs a full marathon of hilarity, nostalgia, and “wait, what just happened?” plot twists — all on a luxury cruise.
The trailer kicks off with a party-at-sea vibe, featuring the classic comic trio — Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh, and Chunky Panday — back to their full goofy glory. But hold on! The madness begins when Ranjeet, the iconic Bollywood villain (yes, that Ranjeet), announces his will and declares his son Jolly as heir. Enter not one, not two, but three Jollys — played by Akshay, Riteish, and Abhishek Bachchan. Classic Housefull chaos? Absolutely.
But this time, the stakes are high — like murder mystery on a luxury cruise high. When Ranjeet ends up dead (RIP hilariously), the finger-pointing begins — and so does the sleuthing, led by none other than Jackie Shroff and Sanjay Dutt in investigator mode. You read that right. Munna Bhai and Bhidu are here to solve a whodunit, Housefull-style.
Housefull 5 Trailer Promises Laughs, Murder & Monkey Slaps
The Housefull 5 trailer is peppered with throwbacks that hit the right nostalgia nerve. One LOL-worthy moment? Jackie Shroff channeling his son Tiger’s meme-magnet line “Choti bacchi ho kya?” Yes, it’s real, and it’s as ridiculous as you’d hope. Another riotous callback? Akshay Kumar’s legendary slapstick moment with the monkey — reborn for a new generation of chaos lovers.
And just when you think you’ve seen it all, the twist hits — literally. Producer Sajid Nadiadwala drops the bombshell: there are multiple versions of the film, each with a different killer and climax. Imagine watching a 3 PM show and getting a completely different ending than your friend who saw the 6 PM show. A Bollywood Knives Out meets Housefull? We’re in!
The visual palette screams grandeur — shot across London, France, Spain, and the UK — with a cruise ship that’s as extra as the plot. Oh, and did we mention the stacked ensemble cast? From Jacqueline Fernandez, Sonam Bajwa, Nargis Fakhri, Nana Patekar, Chitrangada Singh, to Johnny Lever, Fardeen Khan, Shreyas Talpade, Dino Morea, and Soundarya Sharma — it’s a full house in every sense.
Set to hit theatres June 6, 2025, Housefull 5 promises to be Bollywood’s first big-screen “choose-your-own-murderer” comedy extravaganza. So book your tickets — and maybe for more than one show, just to see all the endings!
