Sajid Nadiadwala’s Housefull 5 has generated significant box office success, crossing ₹240 crore globally.

Sajid Nadiadwala’s Housefull 5 has emerged as a clear winner at the box office, reaffirming the strength of well-packaged commercial cinema. With a production budget of 225 crore and an additional 15 crore spent on prints and advertising, the film’s total cost stood at 240 crore.

Yet, through a smart blend of box office performance and non-theatrical revenues, the film has secured profitability, marking another feather in the cap of Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment.

Housefull 5 had already recovered a substantial 175 crore pre-release through strategic deals:

  • 90 crore from its OTT rights
  • 55 crore from satellite rights
  • 30 crore from music rights

This left the film with 65 crore to recover from its theatrical run. With a worldwide gross already crossing 240 crore — comfortably above the breakeven mark of 150 crore required for profitability — Housefull 5 has not just covered costs but delivered healthy returns for its makers.

The film’s sustained momentum, especially across mass belts and family audiences, positions it strongly for a 300 crore worldwide mark — a benchmark that would elevate it from hit to blockbuster status.

Produced under the Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment banner and directed by Tarun Mansukhani, Housefull 5 blends madcap comedy with scale and star power, striking gold where it matters most: at the ticket windows.

As it continues its run, Housefull 5 stands as a reminder that franchise entertainment, when done right, remains a reliable bet in the Indian film business.
