‘Housefull 5' Among Global Top Scoring Films For Second Week In A Row
The new Hindi film 'Housefull 5' released in theatres with two different climax sequences. Akshay Kumar's latest Hindi release - Housefull 5 - is raking huge numbers at the box office even as it entered the second week at the global box office. Directed by Tarun Mansukhani, the comedy-thriller has had gross global collections of $28 million in ten days. It also ranked among top-scoring films worldwide for the weekend ending June 15. Akshay Kumar stars in the film alongside Nana Patekar, Riteish Deshmukh, Abhishek Bachchan, Jackie Shroff, Sanjay Dutt, Sonam Bajwa, Nargis Fakhri and Jacqueline Fernandez. Fardeen Khan, Dino Morea, Johnny Lever, Chunky Panday, Shreyas Talpade and Niketan Dheer also play important roles in the film. Housefull 5 had a good second weekend at the box office and became the ninth highest-grossing film at the global box office this week, on Comscore's weekly list. The Indian film scored nearly $4.5 million worldwide over the past three days alone. It earned nearly $270,000 in the US markets in its second weekend. This is the second consecutive week for which Housefull 5 ranked among top-scoring films of the world for a weekend. The Akshay Kumar film made its debut on the Comscore list of top ten highest grossing films worldwide for a weekend. It was the fifth highest-scoring film last weekend, with a three-day total of $16.5 million. After an impressive $4.6 million global gross collection on the opening day, Housefull 5 collections rose over the first weekend, crossing $6 million on both days. In the Indian markets, Housefull 5 made an opening collection of $3.3 million and $12.5 million over the first weekend. On its first Monday, the film saw a significant but expected drop and earned mere $2 million worldwide. The collections dipped consistently through the week, only to bounce back over the second weekend. The film saw a major jump in Indian markets on its second Sunday, June 15. Made on an estimated budget of $25 million, Housefull 5 is among the costliest comedies made in Hindi. The collection figures - big and significant in comparison with other films - are not as impressive when we consider the budget of the film. By the end of the first week, the film has just covered the budget costs with the box office collections. That, however, does not mean the producers are not making profits already - the music, digital and satellite rights are sold for handsome amounts of money even before the film hit theatres. The fifth film in its hit comedy franchise, Housefull 5 is the story of three men claiming to be the real heirs to a big businessman who dies right before his big birthday party on a private cruise. Producer Sajid Nadiadwala and director Tarun Mansukhani have co-written the film. Ranjeet is back as Papa Ranjit - the rich old man in the new Housefull movie and Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh, and Abhishek Bachchan - each claim to be Jolly - the heir to Ranjit's business empire. Nana Patekar, Jackie Shroff, and Sanjay Dutt play cops in the film which features Chunky Panday as Akhri Pasta, Johnny Lever, Shreyas Talpade, Soundarya Sharma, Nikitin Dheer, and Dino Morea as Ranjit's employees while Fardeen Khan plays Ranjeet's second son in Housefull 5. True to the Housefull world, Housefull 5 is a no-brainer, full of slapstick comedy, vulgar and suggestive dialogues and mostly unfunny jokes. The film relies less on comic punches or mystery-filled moments and more on cleavages to trigger the laughs. Nonetheless, actors such as Nana Patekar add gravitas to Housefull 5 with their non-chalant and brilliant performance.
