Akshay Kumar Box Office Collection Surpasses ₹250 Crore
With its impressive worldwide collection and steady domestic growth, Housefull 5 is poised to become one of the most successful films of the year, cementing Akshay Kumar's status as a bankable star and solidifying the film's position in the annals of Bollywood history.
Akshay Kumar's Housefull 5 has achieved a remarkable milestone, earning approximately ₹250 crore worldwide in just 11 days, surpassing the lifetime collection of Ajay Devgn's Raid 2. The film's domestic collection has also reached ₹165.25 crore, with a steady momentum in its second week.
The film, directed by Tarun Mansukhani, boasts an impressive star cast, including Akshay Kumar, Abhishek Bachchan, Riteish Deshmukh, Nargis Fakhri, Jacqueline Fernandez, and Soundarya Sharma. Its stellar start, crossing the ₹100 crore mark within four days, has set the tone for its successful run at the box office. Housefull 5 has beaten notable films like Mohanlal's, which collected ₹234.5 crore, and is on track to surpass Venkatesh's Sankranthiki Vasthunam and Mohanlal's L2 Empuraan.
As the film gears up for a major box office clash with Aamir Khan's Sitaare Zameen Par on June 20, early predictions suggest that Housefull 5 will maintain its lead, with the latter expected to earn around ₹3-4 crore. The top spot is currently held by Vicky Kaushal's film, which has collected an impressive ₹807.88 crore. Despite the upcoming competition, Akshay Kumar's Housefull 5 is expected to continue its successful run, with its collection likely to rise in the coming days.
The success of Housefull 5 is a testament to Akshay Kumar's enduring popularity and the film's engaging storyline, which has resonated with audiences worldwide. As the film continues to break records and surpass notable milestones, it will be interesting to see how it performs in the face of upcoming competition and whether it can maintain its position as one of the highest-grossing films of the year.
