Directed by Indra Kumar, the film stars Ajay Devgn, Riteish Deshmukh, Arshad Warsi, Jaaved Jaaferi, Sanjay Mishra, Ravi Kishan, Esha Gupta, Sanjeeda Shaikh, Anjali Anand, Upendra Limaye and Vijay Patkar, making it one of the biggest comedy casts of the season. Early audience reactions from the first shows have described the film as a fun-filled laugh riot, with praise coming in for the comic timing of Ajay Devgn, Riteish Deshmukh, Arshad Warsi, Jaaved Jaaferi and Sanjay Mishra. The film continues the franchise\u2019s familiar formula of confusion, over-the-top characters, physical comedy and adventure, while also tapping into nostalgia for fans who have followed the series since the original <em>Dhamaal<\/em> released in 2007. Trade estimates suggest that <em>Dhamaal 4<\/em> could open in the \u20b912\u201314 crore nett range on its first day, with the possibility of touching \u20b915 crore if evening and night shows see strong footfalls. The movie has been certified U\/A 13+ by the CBFC with a runtime of 143 minutes, and reports say it was cleared without any scene cuts, though minor changes were made to certain gestures and objectionable words. The film also faces competition from Disney\u2019s live-action <em>Moana<\/em>, but both releases are expected to attract different sections of family audiences. With positive early word of mouth, strong franchise recall and a comedy-heavy cast, <em>Dhamaal 4<\/em> is now looking to convert opening-day curiosity into weekend box-office momentum.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dhamaal 4 has arrived in theatres, bringing back Bollywood\u2019s long-running comedy franchise with a fresh round of chaos, slapstick humour, treasure-hunt madness and ensemble entertainment.
