No Heroine, No Romance: Ajay Devgn’s ‘Golmaal 5’ Breaks Franchise Tradition (EXCLUSIVE)

Rohit Shetty's “Golmaal 5” has an unexpected twist. The upcoming comedy entertainer will have no leading heroine romantically paired opposite Ajay Devgn.
 
This marks the first time a “Golmaal” film will have no “romantic” angle for its leading man, breaking the franchise tradition. Although Priyamani is in the film, she has no romantic angle with Ajay or any of the other actors.  The absence of a traditional love interest is seen as quite the fresh departure given that all the previous installments consistently featured a female lead paired opposite Devgn. “Golmaal: Fun Unlimited” (2006) starred Rimi Sen, while “Golmaal Returns” (2008) and “Golmaal 3” featured Kareena Kapoor Khan. The last instalment, “Golmaal Again” (2017), had Parineeti Chopra playing the female lead.

Golmaal 5” is the most ambitious chapter in the franchise yet. Devgn returns alongside the regular cast members Arshad Warsi, Tusshar Kapoor, Kunal Kemmu, and Shreyas Talpade, promising yet another round of chaotic, laughter-filled entertainment. Sharman Joshi returns to the franchise. Adding a new dynamic to the ensemble, Akshay Kumar also joins the cast to play a negative comic role. The new instalment is expected to be bigger in scale and bolder in the madness quotient, offering a fresh narrative and expanding beyond the usual prank-driven situational humour of its predecessors.

The “Golmaal” saga completes two decades this year. Through its four parts to date, the franchise has collected over ₹600 crore at the worldwide box office. “Golmaal 5” shooting is already underway and is eyeing a theatrical release in early 2027.
