Housefull 5 A and B on Prime Video with a catch

When the film was released in theatres, the filmmakers had decided to release two different versions of the murder mystery comedy with two different killers and two different endings. Depending on the theatre it was watched at, the killers changed. Now, both versions of the film are available to stream on Prime Video, but with a catch. Housefull 5 is available for rent at ₹349, but those curious to know how the story ends in a different version will have to shell out the same amount. It’ll cost ₹698 for anyone curious to know how both versions end. It is unknown when the film will be available for free.
