Housefull 5 is a high-energy comedy with a twist of mystery, taking the beloved chaos of the Housefull franchise to an entirely new setting—a luxurious cruise ship sailing through Europe.
The film follows a group of eccentric characters, many of them from past Housefull films, who come together on what’s meant to be a relaxing vacation. However, the trip takes a wild turn when a murder occurs aboard the cruise. With everyone trapped at sea and each person acting suspiciously, paranoia sets in.
In classic Housefull style, two of the main characters—played by Akshay Kumar and Riteish Deshmukh—decide to impersonate police officers to solve the murder themselves. But rather than bringing order, their antics only escalate the confusion, leading to laugh-out-loud situations, mistaken identities, romantic mix-ups, and absurd showdowns.
As the cruise continues, secrets unravel and the number of suspects grows, each with their own strange backstory and potential motive. The climax promises a trademark Housefull finale: a chaotic but hilarious reveal where everything unravels in the most unpredictable and ridiculous way possible.
