Rohit Shetty has confirmed that he has approached Kareena Kapoor and Sara Ali Khan to be a part of Golmaal 5, and that Kunal Kemmu is a creative consultant on the film. Rohit Shetty’s reaction to an Instagram
post from October this year has caught everyone’s attention and raised anticipation for Golmaal 5.
Rohit Shetty ‘liked’ a post on Instagram that read, “Director Rohit Shetty is reportedly gearing up for the next instalment of his blockbuster comedy franchise, Golmaal 5, and the casting chatter is already creating excitement. Industry insiders reveal that Rohit has approached Kareena Kapoor Khan and Sara Ali Khan to join the ensemble, with both actresses said to be in early talks.”
The post also mentioned, “Sources close to the development share that Rohit genuinely enjoys collaborating with Sara and is keen to bring her back to the franchise alongside Kareena. Interestingly, Golmaal 5 is expected to take a more grounded approach compared to its predecessors, reflecting the filmmaker’s intent to evolve with audience feedback.”
It also stated, “Rohit has reportedly been actively developing the script with a team of young writers to bring a fresh energy to the film, while Golmaal Again star Kunal Khemu is also believed to be contributing as a creative advisor. With this mix of legacy stars and new ideas, Golmaal 5 is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated projects from the Shetty camp.”
Kareena has already been a part of the franchise opposite Ajay Devgn, and a previous Mid-Day report stated, “Director Abhishek Pathak wants to ensure that the storytelling is as taut as the first two parts. The team plans to begin shooting in Goa by December and wrap up by March 2026. Kareena shares great chemistry with Ajay. Since she led Golmaal Returns (2008) and Golmaal 3 (2010), her presence brings a nostalgic charm. The cast will be finalised by December end.”
Meanwhile, Sara Ali Khan has previously collaborated with Rohit Shetty in Simmba. It will be interesting to see whether Kareena and Sara end up sharing the screen in the same film. Also adding Kunal Kemmu to the mix, we could have a Khan family on-screen collaboration! The final cast of the film has yet to be announced, but according to reports, the film will go on floors in 2026.
