Akshay Kumar to appear as the lead villain
According to the latest reports from Bollywood, superstar Akshay Kumar and director Rohit Shetty are joining hands for the first time for a major comedy project. This project is none other than Rohit Shetty’s superhit comedy franchise ‘Golmaal 5’. With Akshay Kumar’s entry, the excitement among fans has increased manifold, and it is believed that this sequel could be the biggest and most unique Golmaal film yet. According to a Variety India report, Akshay Kumar has been signed for a very important role in ‘Golmaal 5’. The special thing is that he will not be playing the hero in this film, but the lead villain. Akshay playing a negative role in a comedy franchise is considered a big surprise in itself. In the film, he will face Ajay Devgn and the entire original Golmaal team, which could lead to a tremendous comedic clash on screen.

A blend of comedy and fantasy
According to reports, this new installment of the Golmaal franchise will be made on a much larger scale than before. While the film will have situational comedy, it will also incorporate some fantasy elements, which will make the story even more fun and unique. Rohit Shetty always keeps the entertainment level high in his films, and audiences expect a similar धमाकेदार (explosive) experience from Golmaal 5. The Golmaal series, directed by Rohit Shetty, is one of the most successful comedy franchises in Bollywood. It all started in 2006 with the film ‘Golmaal: Fun Unlimited,’ which achieved tremendous success at the box office. This was followed by ‘Golmaal Returns’ (2008), ‘Golmaal 3’ (2010), and ‘Golmaal Again’ (2017). Now, audiences are eagerly awaiting Golmaal 5, which is expected to hit theaters in 2026.
Return of the Original Cast
The Golmaal series is also known for its strong and memorable cast. Ajay Devgn, Arshad Warsi, Tusshar Kapoor, Sanjay Mishra, Vrajesh Hirjee, and Mukesh Tiwari have appeared in all the films. Shreyas Talpade has been a part of three films, while Kunal Khemu and Johnny Lever have appeared in two each. These actors are expected to return for Golmaal 5, which will further elevate the film’s comedic appeal. A spin-off of the Golmaal franchise, titled ‘Cirkus,’ was also made. This film was released on December 23, 2022, and was also directed by Rohit Shetty. Although it didn’t become as big a hit as the Golmaal films, it expanded the scope of Rohit Shetty’s comedic universe.
Akshay Kumar’s Busy Schedule in 2026
On the work front, Akshay Kumar has a very busy schedule ahead. He has several big films lined up for 2026. These include the horror-comedy ‘Bhoot Bangla’ (May 15), the action-comedy ‘Welcome to the Jungle’ (June 26), the long-awaited ‘Hera Pheri 3,’ and the action-thriller ‘Haiwaan.’ Therefore, his villainous avatar in Golmaal 5 could prove to be a completely new and entertaining experience for the audience.
