Housefull 5 Review- The much-awaited Housefull 5 has finally arrived in theatres — and it’s already winning hearts with its unique blend of comedy, chaos, and murder mystery. Starring Akshay Kumar and a massive ensemble cast, the film delivers exactly what fans expected: non-stop entertainment with an unexpected twist.
A Murder Mystery on a Cruise Ship
Unlike the earlier films in the franchise, Housefull 5 brings a fresh twist to the story. Set aboard a lavish cruise ship, the film unfolds around a mysterious murder of a billionaire. But don’t expect a serious crime drama — the story is packed with wild gags, funny one-liners, and over-the-top confusion that turns the mystery into a hilarious rollercoaster.
Two Endings? Yes, You Heard That Right!
Here’s the real kicker — Housefull 5 offers two entirely different climaxes, a first for mainstream Indian cinema. Depending on the theatre you’re in, you’ll watch a different version of the film — titled either Housefull 5A or Housefull 5B.
Producer Sajid Nadiadwala shared that this has been his dream for 30 years:
“Each theatre will have a different killer! You’ll want to watch it again to see what changes.”
So, if you watch it at one cinema, you might leave thinking one character did it — but at another, you’ll be pointing fingers at someone else entirely. This clever move is already stirring buzz and encouraging repeat viewings.

Directed by Tarun Mansukhani and co-written by Farhad Samji, Housefull 5 brings back the franchise’s signature madness — this time with an added layer of suspense.
A Franchise That Just Keeps Growing
