Amitabh Bachchan sends wishes for Housefull 5

After the highly anticipated release of the Housefull 5 trailer, megastar Amitabh Bachchan recently voiced his support for his son, Abhishek Bachchan.

Since its release earlier this week, the trailer has created a lot of buzz among both fans and the industry. The Housefull franchise, which combines extravagant humour with opulent cinematic settings, has been a favourite among viewers for the past fifteen years since the first movie was released in 2010.

Taking to social media platform X (formerly Twitter), the veteran actor responded to a fan page dedicated to the film and wrote, “Bhaiyu...all prayers,” extending his blessings to Abhishek as the film gears up for release.

Tarun Mansukhani's Housefull 5 promises a fresh take on the franchise's trademark humour. The teaser, which was released on 30 April, shows a billionaire (played by veteran actor Nana Patekar) celebrating his 100th birthday at an opulent yacht party.

But when the tycoon passes away just before his will is revealed, the joyous occasion takes a sinister turn. Three visitors who have been drugged and are unable to recall their own identities are at the centre of this bizarre mystery.

Discussions concerning possible plot twists or alternate endings were sparked by the filmmakers' alleged submission of two versions of the movie to the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC), which further increased the intrigue. The CBFC has given the movie a U/A certificate.

Alongside returning favourites Akshay Kumar and Riteish Deshmukh, Abhishek Bachchan returns to the Housefull 5 cast. Jacqueline Fernandez and a number of other well-known Bollywood figures also appear in the movie. Sajid Nadiadwala, Warda Nadiadwala, and Firuzi Khan are producing the project under the auspices of Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment.

Abhishek will also appear in King, an action-thriller film starring Shah Rukh Khan, in addition to this high-profile comedy. With several well-known releases planned, the junior Bachchan's future looks bright.

The release date of Housefull 5 is set for June 6, 2025.
