‘Golmaal 5’: Rohit Shetty revives OG cast, introduces series’ single female villain – Report |
‘Golmaal 5’, directed by Rohit Shetty, shakes up the comedy series that launched with ‘Golmaal: Fun Unlimited’ in 2006 by adding fantasy elements and a tough female villain. This long-awaited follow-up energizes the group-star format with its bold and exciting approach.
OG cast returns
According to PTI, ‘Golmaal 5’ will bring back the familiar team of mischief‑prone characters led by Ajay Devgn, Arshad Warsi, Tusshar Kapoor, Shreyas Talpade and Kunal Khemu, with Sharman Joshi rejoining the cast this time, reviving a connection to the original film. The fifth part is going to be a fantasy comedy.” This suggests that the film will blend the franchise’s signature humour with elements of fantasy or surreal storytelling, potentially raising the stakes beyond the prank‑filled situational comedy of earlier editions.
Introducing female villain
‘Golmaal 5’ breaks fresh ground with its debut female antagonist, a huge shift for the franchise. Producers are finalizing casting options while scripting a narrative that casts a woman as the main baddie. “We’ve structured the plot so the villain is female,” as per the report.
Supporting stars back
Along with the lead actors, popular supporting stars like Johnny Lever, Ashwini Kaleshkar, Mukesh Tiwari, and Sanjay Mishra will likely reprise their roles. For nearly 20 years, Golmaal films have been loved for crazy fun and weird characters in funny messes. Golmaal 5 adds fantasy to make visuals and story bigger, but keeps the same playful comedy fans enjoy.
