With the current pace, ‘Housefull 5’ is now in striking distance of two major hits, Ajay Devgn’s ‘Raid 2’ (Rs 234.9 crore) and Mohanlal’s Thudarum (Rs 234.5 crore). While the film still has some ground to cover to catch up with Venkatesh’s ‘Sankranthiki Vasthunam’ (Rs 255 crore) and Mohanlal’s ‘L2: Empuraan’ (Rs 265.5 crore), trade experts suggest it's well on track to cross ‘Raid 2’ in the coming days.
