One user called it a 'mind-boggling mess' with 'cringe-worthy moments, listless scenes, lazy comedy'.
Housefull 5 is directed by Tarun Mansukhani, with Sajid Nadiadwala, serving as the writer and producer under his banner Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment.
On expanding the Housefull franchise, Sajid Nadiadwala in a statement shared, "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."
