EXCLUSIVE: Golmaal 5 set-building spree begins; Rohit Shetty erects sets of café, police station etc. in Film City

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 source further said, “The makers wanted an even bigger set and suggested filling up the lake inside Film City. However, the Film City authorities turned down the request as such a move could harm the region ecologically. Moreover, the lake has several crocodiles and hence, it was not just impractical but impossible to fill up the lake, that too for a film shoot. Rohit Shetty and his core team understood this point and agreed to construct the set near the lake in the Film City complex.”

Golmaal 5 stars Ajay Devgn, 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.

The transfer of rights

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.
