Golmaal 5 Plot Finalised, Rohit Shetty–Ajay Devgn To Collaborate For 14th Time
Rohit Shetty and Ajay Devgn are set for their 14th collaboration with Golmaal 5, slated to begin filming in early 2026.
If laughter truly is the best medicine, then Rohit Shetty and Ajay Devgn are the long-time chemists of Bollywood. The duo is reportedly back at it again with Golmaal 5.
According to a Pinkvilla report, the fifth installment of the Golmaal franchise is all set to roll out in early 2026. But before that, Shetty is busy wrapping up the Rakesh Maria biopic starring John Abraham, which is scheduled to be completed by September 2025.
'Rohit Shetty is presently shooting for the Rakesh Maria biopic with John Abraham in Mumbai. The film will be wrapped up by September 2025, and the filmmaker is aiming to lock the edit by the end of this year, for an early 2026 release. Right after completing work on the Rakesh Maria Biopic, Rohit moves on to the prep of Golmaal FIVE, and take it on floors by February/March 2026," the portal quoted a source as saying.
And that's not all. Apparently, the storyline for Golmaal 5 is already in place. A new team of writers is currently working on fine-tuning the script, which is expected to be locked by September 2025.
Devgn will, of course, be back leading the pack of the famously dysfunctional Golmaal gang—Arshad Warsi, Tusshar Kapoor, Kunal Kemmu, Shreyas Talpade, and the legendary Johnny Lever.
Rohit Shetty had confirmed Golmaal 5 in November 2024. Rohit Shetty shared that he intends to return to Golmaal's light-hearted world before diving back into intense action. 'I think before any cop film for sure, Golmaal will be the next," Shetty had revealed.
For Shetty, shifting genres feels refreshing. He described working on a comedy like Golmaal after an intense project like Singham as a 'detox." 'I look forward to making Golmaal after a big project like Singham. It's lighter and happier, and I'm not as worried," he said.
The Golmaal series kicked off way back in 2006 with Golmaal: Fun Unlimited and has since delivered three more laugh riots, with the last one, Golmaal Again, releasing in 2017.

Son of Sardaar 2 opens lower than Son of Sardaar in India - Day One Box Office comparison
Son of Sardaar 2, starring Ajay Devgn, Mrunal Thakur, Ravi Kishan and others, has begun its box office run. Serving as the sequel to 2012 comedy film, Son Of Sardaar, the second instalment opened with a below-par figure. Son of Sardaar 2 opens lower than the 2012 released first instalment Directed by Vijay Kumar Arora, Son of Sardaar 2 debuted with just Rs 6 crore to Rs 6.50 crore net on its opening day, today. It is not only a dull start but also a lower figure than the opening day figure of its first instalment. For the record, Son Of Sardaar had collected Rs 9.50 crore net on its opening day. Even if one doesn't consider ticket inflation, the opening day figure of Son Of Sardaar 2 still looks dwarf in front of its prequel as the first film had faced a tough competition with Shah Rukh Khan 's Jab Tak Hai Jaan. The latest outing of Ajay Devgn also faced a clash with Dharma Productions' Dhadak 2, however, both have nominal buzz among the audience. Day 1 box office comparison of Son Of Sardaar and Son of Sardaar 2: Movie Net India Day 1 Son of Sardaar (2012) Rs 9.50 crore Son of Sardaar 2 (2025) Rs 6.75 crore The original movie had Sanjay Dutt, Juhi Chawla, and Sonakshi Sinha as the three main characters apart from Ajay Devgn. Moreover, Salman Khan had made a guest appearance in the movie, which took its buzz a notch higher. Son of Sardaar ended up doing Rs 88 crore net in its lifetime and emerged as a HIT venture. Looking at the current trends and initial word-of-mouth of Son Of Sardaar 2, it is likely to wrap its theatrical run much lower than its prequel. Don't be surprised if it ends up collecting just half of its first part. The movie has opened to average to poor reviews, which are hampering its business. If the movie had met with superlative word-of-mouth, things would have been much better. Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more updates.

So, thank you Raju sir, thank you Sid and especially, thank you Atlee sir and his team for giving me the opportunity in Jawan." The actor further added, "I want to thank my team and management which works tirelessly with me. They bear with my eccentricities and impatience and give me their full attention and make me look much better than I am. This award, without the perseverance and love, would not be possible at all. Thank you so much for everything you do. My wife and kids, who over the last few years gave me so much more love and care as if I am the kid in the house and want only the best for me. They know my obsession with cinema takes me away from them but they all bear it with a smile and allow me the time. So, thank you so much for that. The Pathaan actor went on to add, "The national award is not just about achievement; it's a reminder that what I do matters.

It is a reminder that acting is not a job but a responsibility to bring truth to the screens. And then lastly to my fans, thank you for all the cheers and all the tears. Really, thank you for pausing your scroll while watching my work. This award is for you, as each award is. I would love to spread my arms for you and share my love, but I'm a bit indisposed. But don't worry, just keep the popcorn ready, I'll be back in theatres and soon on the stream, so till then, just with one hand 'ready'," the Superstar concluded.

3BHK Movie Review: Siddharth starrer coming-of-age drama partly works with mediocre idea of an underdog's success
Siddharth starrer coming-of-age drama 3BHK hit the big screens on July 4, 2025, and opened to generally positive reviews. If you're planning to watch the film on Amazon Prime Video, here's the Pinkvilla review for it. The Plot 3BHK presents the story of Vasudevan, an average Joe who lives with his wife Shanthi and two kids - Prabhu and Aarthi. In his life, Vasudevan only has one big dream, and that is to own a home instead of spending his days in a rented space. Over the years, as Vasudevan inches closer to fulfilling his goal, various aspects get in the way, be it health issues, rising inflation, or something else. Whether Vasudevan fulfills his dream with the help of his son Prabhu becomes the central focus of the story. The Good 3BHK from the beginning itself manages to stand strong as a venture rooted in reality. The film basically aligns with what an average family in Tamil Nadu might have to face to achieve bigger things in life. The dynamics shared by the characters, especially the family members, are held strong because of the brilliant actors. All four of them, namely Sarathkumar, Siddharth, Devayani, and Meetha Raghunath, embed themselves to completely fit the world with nuanced portrayals. The compelling narrative the film offers works partially due to sticking with reality rather than being allowed to follow cinematic tropes. While it may not be as remarkable as Balu Mahendran's Veedu, 3BHK feels like a mirror into reality for many people, especially from the lower-middle-class strata of society. Another fresh perspective the narrative gives is taking the family through a journey of decades to fulfill their dream. While the film isn't without its flaws, it does feel like a genuine attempt at trying to make something profound and feel-good. Coming to the technical aspects of 3BHK, Amrit Ramnath magically weaves musical tracks and background scores that are credible and impressive for the movie. Moving ahead from the legacy of Varshangalkku Shesham's music, the composer manages to be subtle with his skills in an overly saturated world of music, which is generally meant to stimulate the listeners again and again. The cinematography by Dinesh B. Krishnan and Jithin Stanislaus is perfect for the world, needing to be lauded. The Bad 3BHK seems to collectively describe owning a home as the dream of every middle-class person out there. While it may be true for some households, generalizing a single person's dream for every individual in a family seems more like conditioning rather than something genuine. Being rooted in reality, the writer should realize that each person in this world has other dreams too, even if they hail from a middle-class background. While performances by all the actors were commendable and responsible for the film's success, showcasing Siddharth as a school student seemed far-fetched. Finally, while the execution of the drama flick needed some refinement, the editing could have easily reduced the duration of the film and made it tighter for viewers to enjoy. The Performances 3BHK has Siddharth highlighting his strong skills as an actor. While his recent works in Indian 2, Miss You, and Test largely missed the mark, 3BHK manages to redeem him. Moreover, Sarathkumar and Devayani share a beautiful chemistry as husband and wife, maintaining the same dynamics with Siddharth and Meetha as well. Additionally, Chaitra J Achar does a neat job. The Verdict The story of 3BHK does drag at times, but as a whole, the film manages to emotionally connect with various people. With some brilliant performances, the coming-of-age drama is a perfect one-time watch.
