Golmaal 5 Gets Bigger: Akshay Kumar Joins Ajay Devgn and the Madness

Bollywood's favourite comedy gang is back - and this time the madness just got bigger. On the birthday of filmmaker Rohit Shetty, the makers officially confirmed Golmaal 5, sending fans of the franchise into celebration mode. But the real surprise? Akshay Kumar is joining the iconic Golmaal crew led by Ajay Devgn.

The announcement arrived through a fun Instagram video posted by Akshay Kumar, and it quickly turned into a party for longtime fans of the comedy universe.

A reunion... and a surprise entry

The clip begins like a nostalgic roll call. Ajay Devgn is joined by the familiar faces that helped build the Golmaal madness - Arshad Warsi, Shreyas Talpade, Kunal Kemmu, and Tusshar Kapoor. The gang celebrates the return of Sharman Joshi, completing what looks like a near-full reunion of the original chaos squad.

Just when the video feels like a pure nostalgia trip, the twist arrives. Akshay Kumar walks into the frame, rocking a shaved head, black kurta-pyjama and dark sunglasses - instantly turning the moment into a blockbuster-style reveal. He greets the gang and shares a warm hug with Ajay Devgn, officially stepping into the Golmaal universe.

Akshay's message adds to the chaos

Sharing the video, Akshay Kumar wished Rohit Shetty a happy birthday and teased the scale of the upcoming madness. The actor said that on the director's special day, the "madness just got bigger and louder," adding that he was excited to join the crazy Golmaal family.

The post quickly caught fire online, with fans flooding the comments section with excitement about the new combination.

Fans already calling it a blockbuster

Fans wasted no time predicting fireworks at the box office. Many celebrated the trio of Rohit Shetty, Ajay Devgn and Akshay Kumar coming together for a full-blown comedy spectacle.

Content creator Ashish Chanchlani summed up the mood perfectly, reacting to the video with excitement and calling it "so fun."

The Golmaal legacy continues

The madness began with Golmaal: Fun Unlimited in 2006, which introduced audiences to a group of friends who constantly land in ridiculous situations. The slapstick humour and fast-paced storytelling turned the film into a massive hit.

The success led to several sequels - Golmaal Returns (2008), Golmaal 3 (2010) and Golmaal Again (2017) - all packed with over-the-top comedy, colourful characters and endless confusion.

Interestingly, Akshay Kumar and Ajay Devgn recently shared screen space in Singham Again (2024), another Rohit Shetty film loaded with star power. Their chemistry there seems to have paved the way for Akshay's entry into the Golmaal universe.

And if the announcement video is any hint, Golmaal 5 is preparing to deliver what fans love most - louder jokes, crazier confusion and a whole lot of comedy chaos.
