‘Housefull 5' box-office: Akshay Kumar comedy holds strong, netts ₹116.68 in India
Holding its momentum at the box-office, Tarun Mansukhani's Housefull 5 has netted ₹116.68 crore in Indian theatres in five days. The film has stolen a march on Sky Force and Kesari Chapter 2, two other Akshay Kumar releases from this year, to become the fourth-highest grossing Hindi film of 2025.
Kumar appears to have bounced back after a dry spell in theatres. In Housefull 5, a franchise he has headlined since 2010 alongside Riteish Deshmukh, Kumar plays one of the three 'Jollys' implicated in a murder. The comedy caper, which also features Abhishek Bachchan, Jacqueline Fernandez and others, piqued curiosity by offering two endings to the audience. The film was released in two versions — Housefull 5A & 5B — in theatres, each featuring a different killer in the climactic reveal.
According to official numbers shared by the makers, Housefull 5 collected ₹11.70 crore on Tuesday and ₹13.15 crore on Monday. It made a killing over its first weekend, netting a collection of ₹91.83 crore in India.
Housefull 5 also features Nana Patekar, Sonam Bajwa, Nargis Fakhri, Chitrangada Singh, Fardeen Khan, Chunky Pandey, Johnny Lever, Shreyas Talpade, Dino Morea, Ranjeet, Soundarya Sharma, Nikitin Dheer, and Akashdeep Sabir. Jackie Shroff and Sanjay Dutt appear in special cameos, as does Bobby Deol. The film is produced by Sajid Nadiadwala under the banner of Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment.
