Housefull 5 hit the big screens on June 6 and is currently in its third weekend of release. The film is directed by Tarun Mansukhani and boasts an ensemble star cast led by Abhishek Bachchan, Akshay Kumar and Riteish Deshmukh. Despite a reduction in screen space owing to the release of Aamir Khan's Sitaare Zameen Par, the comedy movie has maintained a solid hold at the domestic box office and has become the second highest Bollywood grosser of the year.
Housefull 5 opened to a decent ₹24 crore. The film raked in ₹127.25 crore in the first week of release. Despite the criticism surrounding the over-sexualisation and objectification of the female characters in the film, the Akshay Kumar starrer managed to hold steady at the ticketing counter.

Following the release of Sitaare Zameen Par on June 20, the film's collection plummeted but remained above average. Despite the new release, Housefull 5 registered a growth in business on Saturday.
