Housefull 5 box office collection day 6: Akshay Kumar can finally breathe easy, film crosses Jolly LLB 2, Holiday, Sky Force
The negative reviews of Tarun Mansukhani's whodunit comedy Housefull 5 seems to be catching up with its box office performance now. Six days into release, the film's daily earnings finally dropped to single digits. However, that hasn't stopped the film from passing three more of lead actor Akshay Kumar's Rs 100 crore club movies. On Wednesday, Housefull 5 earned Rs 8 crore at the domestic box office, which was quite a drop from its Tuesday earnings of Rs 11.25 crore, a further dip from its Monday collection of Rs 13 crore. Over the opening weekend, Housefull 5 earned Rs 24 crore, Rs 31 crore, Rs 32.5 crore on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday respectively.
As per Sacnilk, the current box office collection of Housefull 5 in India stands at Rs 119.75 crore. This has allowed it to cross the lifetime domestic earnings of three more Rs 100 crore grossers of Kumar — AR Murugadoss' 2014 action thriller Holiday – A Soldier Is Never Off Duty (Rs 112.45 crore), Abhishek Anil Kapur and Sandeep Kewlani's action film Sky Force (Rs 112.75 crore), which released earlier this year, along with Subhash Kapoor's 2017 courtroom comedy Jolly LLB 2 (Rs 117 crore).
It had already surpassed other Rs 100 crore club members like Sajid Khan's 2012 comedy Housefull 2 (Rs 106 crore), Sajid-Farhad's 2016 comedy Housefull 3 (Rs 109.14 crore), and Reema Kagti's 2018 period sports drama Gold (Rs 104.72 crore). Its next target is Tinu Suresh Desai's 2016 crime thriller Rustom (Rs 127.49 crore), for which Kumar also won a National Award.
Housefull 5 is Kumar's 18th film to enter the Rs 100 crore club. Besides the above mentioned films, others include Prabhu Deva's 2012 action comedy Rowdy Rathore (Rs 133.25 crore), Raja Krishna Menon's 2016 political thriller Airlift (Rs 128.1 crore), Shree Narayan Singh's 2017 romantic comedy Toilet – Ek Prem Katha (Rs 134.22 crore), S Shankar's 2018 Tamil sci-fi fantasy 2.0 (Rs 189.55 crore), Jagan Shakti's 2019 workplace drama Mission Mangal (Rs 202.98 crore), Farhad Samji's 2019 comedy Housefull 4 (Rs 194.60 crore), and Raj Mehta's 2019 romantic comedy Good Newwz (Rs 205.14 crore).
Housefull 5 has also benefitted from the two versions — A and B — that it's released in. The endings and killers are different in each version of the whodunit comedy. The ensemble cast also helps the film as it consists of franchise regulars like Kumar, Abhishek Bachchan, Riteish Deshmukh, Johnny Lever, Shreyas Talpade, Jacqueline Fernandez, Chunky Panday, and Ranjit, along with new entrants like Dino Morea, Fardeen Khan, Chitrangda Singh, Sanjay Dutt, Jackie Shroff, Sonam Bajwa, Nargis Fakhri, Nana Patekar, and Soundarya Sharma among others.

Housefull 5 is likely to continue to dominate the domestic box office given its next major competition comes only next week in the form of RS Prasanna's coming-of-age sports comedy Sitaare Zameen Par, headlined by Aamir Khan, which will release in cinemas next Friday on June 20. Meanwhile, Housefull 5 is produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, who has also written the story and screenplay.

Director Sanjay Gupta Hints Bollywood Fakes Box Office Numbers; Fans Ask, 'Sitaare Zameen Par?'
Last Updated: Due to the post's timing, netizens on Reddit think Sanjay Gupta took a dig at Aamir Khan's Sitaare Zameen Par. Director and producer Sanjay Gupta has hinted in his latest X post that Bollywood might be faking its box office numbers. He wrote a cryptic post, sarcastically praising the film industry for delivering constant hits. His post caught everyone's attention, and on social media sites like Reddit, people are guessing if he took a dig at Aamir Khan's Sitaare Zameen Par. Sanjay Gupta wrote, 'We are living in such wonderful times… No film bombs at the box office. They all open to wonderful numbers. Sab changa hai 🙃🙃🙃." Due to the post's timing, netizens on Reddit think the post is a dig at Aamir Khan's Sitaare Zameen Par, which was released on June 20. One comment read, 'I think it was for Sitaare Zameen Par." Another read, 'Sitaare Zameen Par box office numbers giving sleepless nights to keyboard warriors." A few days later, Sanjay posted, 'For me, a sequel right up there with GODFATHER 2 was TERMINATOR 2. It was all and much more I wanted to see in a sequel. I'm just so glad I didn't watch a single one after T2. They were all so terrible." For me, a sequel right up there with GODFATHER 2 was TERMINATOR 2. It was all and much more I wanted to see in a sequel.I'm just so glad I didn't watch a single one after T 2. They were all so terrible.— Sanjay Gupta (@_SanjayGupta) June 23, 2025 Meanwhile, Aamir Khan's film Sitaare Zameen Par is shining bright at the box office. After just three days in theatres, the heartwarming sports comedy has raked in a solid Rs 57 crore net in India, according to Sacnilk. Directed by RS Prasanna and also starring Genelia Deshmukh, the film had a strong weekend run. Sitaare Zameen Par has been receiving a good response from the audience and critics alike for its emotional depth and powerful storytelling. Sitaare Zameen Par is inching closer to surpassing the lifetime India collection of Aamir Khan's Laal Singh Chaddha, which had wrapped up at Rs 61.36 crore. The film has already outperformed Kesari Chapter 2 (Rs 29.5 crore) and Sunny Deol's Jaat (Rs 26.25 crore) in just its first weekend. However, it still trails behind the likes of Salman Khan's Sikandar, which raked in Rs 74.5 crore in its opening weekend, and Akshay Kumar's Sky Force, which clocked Rs 62.25 crore. News18 gave 3.5 rating to Sitaare Zameen Par. A part of our review read, 'Unlike Taare Zameen Par's Nikumbh, Gulshan isn't perfect. This is a flawed, man-child character, dealing with his own traumas, learning to navigate life with the help of those who suffer developmental delays. So far, on paper, Sitaare Zameen Par seems rather fantastic, novel, and heartfelt. And don't get us wrong — it definitely is all of that. But it also has its share of flaws that become a bump in its path to becoming a great film. To start with, at 2 hours 39 minutes, the film appears to be an extremely long and slow-moving affair."
