Housefull 5 review and release live updates: Akshay Kumar, 18 other stars’ ‘killer comedy’ gets a thumbs up from fans-OxBig News Network

It is directed by Tarun Mansukhani of Dostana fame and is slated to hit the big screen on Friday.

On expanding the franchise, Sajid Nadiadwala in a press note said, “I’ve been thinking about the story of Housefull 5 and having two different climaxes for the last 30 years. I’ve always wanted to make a thriller, and the idea finally came to me 3-4 years ago, right after I finished writing Housefull 4. I wrote the story and screenplay myself, and it’s truly a dream come true. What makes this film unique is that different shows will have all together different killers and climax. Imagine a 3 PM show having one ending, and the 6 PM show having another- this is happening across single screens and multiplexes.”

He added, “Housefull 5 is a true killer comedy. Writing it gave me sleepless nights, but also a lot of joy. Once the script was ready, bringing Akshay and Tarun Mansukhani on board and others made the journey even more fruitful.”
