The laughter riot has officially moved from the big screen to the small screen. Prime Video has officially unveiled the exclusive global streaming release of Housefull 5, the newest instalment in the beloved comedy franchise, now accessible to subscribers around the world. After a successful theatrical run, the star-studded film is now ready to entertain a new wave of audiences from the comfort of their homes. This marks another major milestone for producer Sajid Nadiadwala and his production house, Nadiadwala Grandson, as they continue to deliver blockbuster entertainment to a global audience.
“Housefull 5” Now Streaming Exclusively on Prime Video
Prime Video, on August 1, confirmed that the much-anticipated “Housefull 5” has started streaming exclusively on its platform. The movie, which hit theatres on June 6, 2025, is a riotous comedy thriller that has become synonymous with over-the-top hilarity. Following a brief pay-per-view window, the film is now available for free to all Prime Video subscribers. This swift move to the streaming platform allows fans who missed the theatrical experience to dive into the film’s chaotic world of comedy and suspense.
The announcement was met with a wave of excitement on social media, with fans and critics alike praising the film’s quick transition to a subscription-based platform. This strategy ensures that the film capitalizes on its theatrical buzz and reaches a wider audience in a timely manner, especially for a franchise that thrives on mass appeal.
An Unprecedented Ensemble Cast: More Stars Than Ever
“Housefull 5” is being hailed for its casting coup, featuring an unprecedented lineup of Bollywood heavyweights. The film reunites fan-favorite franchise stars Akshay Kumar and Riteish Deshmukh, along with Abhishek Bachchan making his comeback since Housefull 3. Joining them is a stellar ensemble cast featuring Bollywood heavyweights such as Sonam Bajwa, Nargis Fakhri, Jacqueline Fernandez, Sanjay Dutt, Jackie Shroff, Fardeen Khan, Shreyas Talpade, Nana Patekar, Dino Morea, Chitrangada Singh, Chunky Pandey, Johnny Lever, Nikitin Dheer, and Soundarya Sharma.
This expansive cast creates a complex web of characters, each contributing to the film’s trademark humour and a murder mystery plot set aboard a luxury cruise. The sheer number of stars involved in the film adds to its grand scale, making it a visual spectacle and a treat for fans of multi-starrer comedies.
Two Endings, Double the Fun: The Housefull 5 Twist
Adding to its uniqueness, “Housefull 5” was released with two distinct versions, each featuring a different climax: “Housefull 5A” and “Housefull 5B.” In a strategic and experimental move to encourage repeat viewership, the film revealed a different serial killer in each version. This innovative storytelling technique generated significant buzz during its theatrical run. Both versions are now streaming on Prime Video, allowing viewers to watch the complete narrative and solve the mystery for themselves without any extra rental costs.
The film is produced by Sajid Nadiadwala under his banner, Nadiadwala Grandson. As the architect of the “Housefull” franchise, Nadiadwala has consistently delivered commercially successful and highly entertaining films. Teaming up with director Tarun Mansukhani—best known for Dostana—added a new twist to the franchise, infusing its trademark slapstick comedy with an engaging murder mystery storyline. The screenplay, also written by Tarun Mansukhani, ensures a tight narrative despite the large number of characters.
Whether you’re a longtime fan or a newcomer to the Housefull series, this new instalment is a must-watch. Packed with high-voltage comedy, an unmatched star cast, and non-stop entertainment, Housefull 5 is here to bring laughter back into your living rooms. Stream it now on Prime Video and join the madness!
