Housefull (film series)

Housefull is an Indian comedy film series starring Akshay Kumar, Ritesh Deshmukh, and Chunky Panday, who feature in all entries thus far. The first two, Housefull and Housefull 2, were directed by Sajid Khan; the third, Housefull 3, by Sajid-Farhad; the fourth, Housefull 4, by Farhad Samji; and the fifth with two prints, Housefull 5A and Housefull 5B, by Tarun Mansukhani. The series is produced by Sajid Nadiadwala under his banner Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment. Each film starts with a fresh story unrelated with the preceding film's story. However, the theme and the pace remains the same.

Despite a generally mixed-negative critical reception, the series has been commercially successful, grossing over ₹800 crore worldwide. It is currently the highest-grossing comedy franchise in Indian cinema, as well as one of the highest-grossing Indian film series of all time in general.
