What the Rumor Claimed
Reports suggested Golmaal 5 would release on December 4, 2026, putting it in direct box-office competition with Prabhas’ Fauzi (releasing December 3) and Akshay Kumar’s untitled film with Anees Bazmee. A three-way December clash sounded dramatic enough to spread quickly.
The Official Clarification
Rohit Shetty Picturez didn’t mince words. A spokesperson called the release-date reports “completely false and baseless,” stressing that the team is fully focused on the film itself and that any real updates — including the release date — will only come through official channels. They also asked media outlets to stop circulating unverified claims.
