Rohit Shetty begins massive set construction for 'Golmaal 5'

Mumbai, Jan 13 (UNI) The groundwork for "Golmaal 5" is now visibly underway, with director Rohit Shetty initiating the construction of multiple bespoke sets at Mumbai's Film City.
Known for favouring large outdoor schedules in Goa or extensive shoots at Hyderabad's Ramoji Film City, Shetty has opted for a Mumbai-centric approach for the fifth instalment of the popular franchise.
A source told Bollywood Hungama, “Rohit Shetty usually likes to shoot a chunk of his films in Ramoji Film City, Hyderabad, or Goa. But with Golmaal 5, he’ll make an exception and shoot in Film City, Mumbai. Multiple sets of the café, police station, palatial residence, etc. are being put up.
"All these sets would be ready by the beginning of next month. With the shoot largely centred in Film City, Mumbai, it’ll be convenient for the actors to stay at home and report to the set whenever required.”
The latest chapter is one of Indian cinema's most enduring and commercially robust comedy franchises is scheduled to go on floors with an extended shooting schedule beginning towards the end of February 2026.
Ajay Devgn returns to headline the film alongside long-time collaborators Arshad Warsi, Tusshar Kapoor, Shreyas Talpade and Kunal Kemmu. As per reports, Sharman Joshi, who featured in Golmaal (2006), will make a comeback. Reports also state that the antagonist this time would be a female.
Interestingly, Golmaal’s first part was produced by Shree Ashtavinayak Cine Vision, and the rights were then held by Dhilin Raj (Harshad) Mehta.
As per the buzz in the trade, these rights were later transferred to Tejpal (Rajubhai) Shah of the T A Shah Group, who subsequently assigned them to Rohit Shetty for a handsome amount for each franchise. UNI NST SSP
