'Housefull 5' teaser pulled from YouTube amid copyright row

The buzz around Housefull 5 hit new highs when its much-awaited teaser dropped on April 30, 2025. Packed with humor, chaos, and an explosive star cast, the promo gave fans a first look at the zany world that the fifth installment of the popular comedy franchise promises to deliver. However, just days after racking up over 10 million views, the teaser has mysteriously vanished from YouTube.

Fans eager to rewatch the teaser were surprised to find it no longer accessible on the official YouTube channel of Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment. Instead, they were met with a message: “The video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by Mofusion Studios.” This unexpected takedown has sparked discussions online, leaving many wondering about the nature of the copyright dispute.

Thankfully, all is not lost for eager fans. The teaser is still available on the Instagram profiles of lead actors Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh, Jacqueline Fernandez, and Sonam Bajwa. Their posts continue to garner views and engagement, helping maintain the teaser’s hype in the digital space.

The teaser itself offers a grand peek into what looks like the most extravagant entry in the Housefull franchise yet. With its trademark slapstick comedy, larger-than-life sets, and quirky ensemble moments, Housefull 5 seems all set to deliver a laugh riot this summer.

This time, the makers have truly gone all out. The film boasts one of the biggest multi-starrers in recent memory, featuring Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh, Abhishek Bachchan, Sanjay Dutt, Fardeen Khan, Shreyas Talpade, Nana Patekar, Jackie Shroff, Dino Morea, Jacqueline Fernandez, Nargis Fakhri, Chitrangada Singh, Sonam Bajwa, Soundarya Sharma, Chunky Pandey, and Johnny Lever.

Directed by Tarun Mansukhani and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, Housefull 5 is gearing up for a grand theatrical release on June 6, 2025. Even with the teaser’s hiccup on YouTube, the excitement for Housefull 5 remains rock solid.
