What's the story
The much-awaited Akshay Kumar starrer, Housefull 5, produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, has been given a U/A certificate by the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC).
Notably, Nadiadwala submitted two different cuts for certification!
"Housefull 5 is a one-of-its-kind comic thriller, and to keep the mystery of this entertainer intact, the producer has submitted two different versions of the film to the CBFC," a source told Pinkvilla.
Unique approach
'Housefull 5' could be 1st film with 2 censor certificates
The source further stated, "Housefull 5 could be the rarest of the rare film with two censor certificates and there is a reason for the same, which will be revealed soon."
This unique approach is Nadiadwala's way of surprising fans.
The film, which has a runtime of 2 hours and 43 minutes, is longer than previous installments.
"The makers have promised a killer comedy with lots of confusion caused by 24 actors in the star-cast," added the source.
