Nana Patekar is seen introducing the cast of Housefull 5 to Fugdi, a traditional dance form from the Konkan region, in the latest track titled The Phoogdi Dance, released by the makers on Saturday, May 31, 2025. The song creatively fuses folk elements with modern rap, evoking strong memories of the popular Papa Toh Band Bajaye number from Housefull 2
The two-minute-seven-second video features Nana Patekar leading the way as Akshay Kumar, Abhishek Bachchan, Riteish Deshmukh, Jacqueline Fernandez, Sonam Bajwa, and the rest of the ensemble try to keep up with his moves.
The song also showcases appearances by Nargis Fakhri, Chitrangada Singh, Fardeen Khan, Chunky Pandey, Johnny Lever, and Shreyas Talpade, adding to the star-studded vibe.

The later part of the video shows Jackie Shroff and Sanjay Dutt grooving behind bars, followed by a string of humorous blunders that wrap up the clip on a light-hearted note. Choreographed by Adil Shaikh, the track features lyrics and vocals by Kratex, with a rap segment delivered by Patya The Doc.
Fans quickly flooded the comments section with reactions. One user wrote, "Papa ne band bajadi, this is hilarious nana rapping." Another commented, "Papa Toh Band Bajaye. Music." A third remarked, "Most honest line in the world 'papa to band bajaye.'" While another added, "'Papa to band bajaye' was nostalgia."
One user complimented Nana Patekar's performance and wondered, "I'm wondering how Nana Patekar was convinced for this type of pop rap song singing." Another comment nostalgically read, "I can see the trios of Bluffmaster & Heyy Babyy here. But sadly they are not the same anymore. End of our childhood."
Directed by Tarun Mansukhani, Housefull 5 promises the return of the franchise's signature blend of over-the-top comedy and lavish visuals, and is scheduled to hit theatres on June 6.
The first Housefull movie, directed by Sajid Khan, was released in 2010. It features Akshay Kumar alongside Jiah Khan, Arjun Rampal, Jacqueline Fernandez, Lara Dutta and Chunky Panday. The sequel, also directed by Sajid Khan, came out in 2012, followed by Sajid-Farhad-helmed Housefull 3 in 2016, and Farhad Samji's Housefull 4 in 2019.

Chitrangda Singh opens up on missing ‘Chalte Chalte', ‘Tanu Weds Manu': Was going through my emotional ups and downs

Actor Chitrangda Singh has candidly spoken about the ups and downs in her career, reflecting on the significant films she missed out on during personal sabbaticals. In a recent interview with Indian Express, she revealed that roles in high-profile films such as 'Chalte Chalte', 'Gangster', and 'Tanu Weds Manu' had once been within reach, but life circumstances led her away from them. Reflecting on her time away from the screen, Chitrangda said, 'The first seven years of break were because of my personal life, my commitment to that, and I had a son. I came back, and then I took another two-year break because I was going through a rough patch in my personal life again." She continued, "In between that also I did not have the kind of work that I was looking for coming my way, so I decided to not be around because I was also going through my emotional ups and downs and I didn't want to do stuff that I won't be happy doing. So there was a rollercoaster of life going on. So yes, I did not do as much work as I probably would have wanted to do.' During these phases, she ended up losing out on films that went on to become cult favourites. 'I have made those mistakes. I said no to Anurag Basu's 'Gangster'. I refused 'Tanu Weds Manu'. In 'Mangal Pandey', I said no to the role that Ameesha Patel played. There was one more that I am forgetting, and then there was 'Chalte Chalte' that starred Shah Rukh Khan and Rani Mukerji, which I wasn't around for at all," said the 'Housefull 5' actor. "They had run into some trouble and wanted to desperately cast someone. SRK had told me this. Saeed Mirza had loved my work, and they were looking for me. Juhi Chawla's brother Bobby was looking for my number. I had worked with SRK on an ad film when he had told me all this,' said Chitrangda. The actress' revelations offer a glimpse into the many opportunities that pass by actors due to timing and personal battles, reminding us of the fragile balance between career and life in the film industry. On the professional front, she has another commercial film lined up and is set to announce a new project in September 2025.
