Golmaal 5 has officially gone on floors, bringing back the original cast and adding to audience excitement. Akshay Kumar’s inclusion has generated fresh interest, especially as the popular franchise prepares for another instalment after a long gap.
Akshay Kumar recently spoke about his experience working on the film and collaborating with Ajay Devgn. He confirmed that Ajay will be the central character, while his own role will still play an important part in the overall storyline.
The actor stated that Ajay Devgn remains the main hero of the film. He added that he has no issues with not leading the project, stressing that the film’s success matters more than individual screen time.
Akshay also mentioned that he does not feel insecure about sharing space in a multi-starrer. He believes the final impact of the film is more important and that contributing to a successful project is the bigger goal.
Despite a strong lineup of upcoming releases, concerns about Akshay Kumar’s box office comeback continue. Some fans feel that if his other films do not perform well, Golmaal 5 could help him regain his earlier position.
At the same time, a section of viewers has questioned his decision to take a supporting role. They believe that even with a strong presence, he may not get enough scope to stand out in a film led by Ajay Devgn.
Many users pointed out that the core cast has been associated with the Golmaal franchise for years. This long connection has helped audiences build familiarity, raising doubts about how easily Akshay’s character will fit in.
Some fans have advised Akshay Kumar to focus on lead roles at this stage of his career. Others are hopeful that Priyadarshan’s Bhooth Bangla could help him regain his popularity among audiences.
Trade observers have also noted that the extended success of Dhurandhar: The Revenge may impact other releases. This could create additional pressure on films like Golmaal 5 to perform strongly at the box office.
With nearly a year left for release, expectations are still evolving. It remains to be seen whether Rohit Shetty’s film will help Akshay Kumar reconnect with audiences or if his solo projects will change the narrative.
