The laughter train has officially left the station again! One of Bollywood’s most iconic comedy franchises, Dhamaal, is back with its fourth installment—Dhamaal 4—and the shoot is already underway as of April 2025. With filmmaker Indra Kumar at the helm and a star-studded cast, this new chapter promises more madness, mischief, and mayhem than ever before.
A Franchise That Redefined Bollywood Comedy
The Dhamaal franchise is synonymous with family-friendly, slapstick comedy that never goes out of style. The first film, released in 2007, introduced audiences to a hilarious treasure hunt featuring Sanjay Dutt, Arshad Warsi, Riteish Deshmukh, Jaaved Jaaferi, and Ashish Chaudhary. It quickly became a cult favorite, thanks to its zany plot and unforgettable one-liners.
Its sequel, Double Dhamaal (2011), kept the humor rolling, albeit with mixed reviews, while Total Dhamaal (2019) amped up the budget and scale, bringing in big names like Ajay Devgn, Anil Kapoor, and Madhuri Dixit, adding fresh flair to the chaos. Despite missing Sanjay Dutt, the third installment was a box office success and reignited love for the franchise.
Dhamaal 4: Madness Mode ON!
Fast-forward to April 2025, and Dhamaal 4 has officially gone on floors. The shoot began in March, and filming is currently taking place in and around Mumbai. The announcement came subtly through social media, when casting agent Shahid Hasan posted a behind-the-scenes clapboard photo, captioned:
“Some films start with a script. Ours starts with Dhamaal. Mahurat done. Dhamaal 4 Madness mode: ON.”
With pre-production now wrapped and principal shooting underway, fans can expect more behind-the-scenes peeks and cast reveals in the coming weeks.

While Sanjay Dutt’s involvement remains unconfirmed, the existing mix of veterans and comic timing specialists already has fans hyped.
Backed by Big Names
Dhamaal 4 is being produced by T-Series in collaboration with Devgn Films, ensuring the film has strong backing, both creatively and commercially. Given the franchise’s track record, there’s massive potential for the film to emerge as one of 2025’s biggest comedy blockbusters.
Why Dhamaal 4 Comes at the Perfect Time

Looking Ahead: Release Timeline
While an exact release date hasn’t been officially announced, Dhamaal 4 is expected to hit theatres by the end of 2025, just in time to close out the year with laughter and nostalgia. With filming in full swing, the next big milestones will be teaser releases and the official cast reveal, which fans are eagerly awaiting.
