New update on Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh’s Housefull 5
Earlier an official announcement was made that the film would be releasing on Diwali 2024 but now it will release on June 6th, 2025.
Akshay Kumar has started shooting for his next film Housefull 5. It is one of the most popular comedy film franchises. Earlier an official announcement was made that the film would be releasing on Diwali 2024 but now it will release on June 6th, 2025. And now there is a fresh update. Bollywood Hungama has reported that it is set on a cruise ship.
According to Bollywood Hungama report, the announcement video showcased a delightful montage of humorous and iconic moments from the first four films of the franchise, transitioning into the lavish setting of a cruise ship. Towards the video’s conclusion, instead of the conventional “Releasing on June 6, 2025,” the makers opted for a playful twist, proclaiming that the film “Sets sail on June 6, 2025.” This clever alteration suggests that the movie promises an uproarious escapade aboard the high seas.
A source also revealed that the hallmark of all Housefull films lies in the chaos unleashed when an eccentric ensemble of characters congregates under one roof, hence the apt moniker Housefull. Talking about the fifth part, the source disclosed, “With Housefull 5, it seems like the makers are taking the madness level many notches higher by setting the story on a ship. And one can’t leave the ship as it’s presumably in the sea. Hence, these characters will have no choice but to face each other, causing confusion and lots of entertainment.”
For now, only two names have been confirmed for Housefull 5 – Akshay Kumar and Riteish Deshmukh. There are rumours that John Abraham, Abhishek Bachchan and Bobby Deol are also likely to be a part of the upcoming movie.
The makers of Housefull 5 had earlier issued an official statement about the film’s casting and urged everyone not to speculate anything as of now. “There are many speculations doing rounds about the star cast in Housefull 5, we kindly request media houses to please refrain from making any premature announcements at this stage. We will officially announce the star cast soon,” the statement released by Nadiadwala Grandson read.
