Housefull 5’ Day 3 Box Office: ₹32 Cr Sunday Pushes Akshay Kumar Film Close to ₹90 Cr Milestone:
Introduction Of HouseFull Movie:
The Housefull franchise is one of Bollywood’s most successful and beloved comedy series, known for its madcap humor, ensemble star casts, and a signature style of chaotic storytelling. It all began in 2010 with Housefull, directed by Sajid Khan, where Akshay Kumar played a man plagued by bad luck in love, leading to a series of hilarious mix-ups.
Its success prompted Housefull 2 in 2012, which expanded the cast and chaos with a story about four men trying to marry into the same rich family. Housefull 3 (2016) continued the tradition, introducing a new set of characters pretending to be physically disabled to win approval from an overprotective father. In 2019, Housefull 4 took the franchise into a reincarnation comedy zone, spanning two time periods—1419 and 2019—becoming one of the highest-grossing comedies in India with over ₹200 crore in earnings.
Now, Housefull 5 (2025) brings back Akshay Kumar and Riteish Deshmukh along with a new ensemble cast, blending familiar comic tropes with fresh gags and high production value. With three days into release, the film has stormed the box office, delivering impressive numbers and proving that the franchise still holds mass appeal after 15 years.
