Housefull 5 Faces Disappointing Opening Numbers Despite Mixed Reviews

Disappointing Start for Housefull 5

The initial box office figures for Sajid Nadiadwala's latest installment in the Housefull series are not promising.

Kishan Damani, a prominent distributor in Bihar, commented, "The early response is quite discouraging... both advance sales and walk-in bookings are low. The dual-ending strategy will only succeed if the film is exceptionally crafted and viewers are eager to see it multiple times. From what I gather, the early feedback does not indicate that."

Diverse Opinions on the Film's Strategy

Conversely, Akshaye Rathi holds a different perspective, stating, "The approach of offering two versions with distinct endings is definitely a conversation starter and creates buzz. Given the current ticket sales, it seems audiences are enjoying themselves. Here's to the continued success of the Housefull franchise!"

Trade Analyst's Harsh Critique

On the other hand, trade analyst Amod Mehra has a starkly different view, labeling the film as a "superflop" in his succinct assessment.
