The film is facing competition from other theatrical releases, including Alia Bhatt’s Alpha and Akshay Kumar starrer Welcome To The Jungle.
Meanwhile, the makers officially announced Dhamaal 5 in the post-credits scene of Dhamaal 4, revealing that the fifth instalment is already in the works, with Farhad Samji taking over as director. While some fans were excited the announcement, others expressed disappointment and questioned the need for another film in the franchise.
The mixed reactions to the sequel announcement come amid a lukewarm critical response to Dhamaal 4. An excerpt from SCREEN’s review of Dhamaal 4 read, “The guys do what they have done in the Dhamaal films: Devgn is busy with the hero bits, leaping off ships and cliffs on rescue missions; Warsi and Jaaferi reprise their loving brother act, which they could do in their sleep; Sanjay Mishra adds a ‘Bro’ to each of his lines for coolth: you get the drift. We don’t go looking for political correctness in self-confessed cringe comedies. But is it too much to expect a little bit of perkiness? And not such an avalanche of in-your-face CGI? Tigers, crocodiles, cliffs, clouds come crowding in. A couple of annoying kids do a good job of annoying us. And the climax comes with saccharine flowing, and laughs drying.”Story continues below this ad
