Box Office Competition

Housefull 5 is competing with Kamal Haasan’s Thug Life (₹23 crore in two days) and Rajkummar Rao’s Bhool Chuk Maaf. Despite mixed reviews, its family-friendly humor and franchise popularity have given it an edge. Trade analysts predict the film could hit ₹100 crore in its first week, thanks to the festive season and strong word-of-mouth.

Audience and Critic Reactions

Fans on X are raving about the film’s slapstick comedy and suspense, with special praise for Riteish Deshmukh, Abhishek Bachchan, and veterans like Sanjay Dutt and Jackie Shroff. Comments like “Non-stop laughs and a crazy mystery!” are flooding social media. Trade analyst Taran Adarsh gave it 3.5 stars, calling it a “paisa-vasool entertainer.” While some critics noted a lack of originality, the dual-ending gimmick has kept audiences hooked.

Made on a ₹240 crore budget (₹225 crore production, ₹15 crore promotion), Housefull 5 has recovered ₹135 crore via non-theatrical deals (digital, satellite, music rights).
