Diwali releases this year included Akshay Kumar, Kriti Sanon, Riteish Deshmukh, Bobby Deol starrer Housefull 4, Taapsee Pannu and Bhumi Pednekar’s Saand Ki Aankh and Rajkummar Rao and Mouni Roy starrer Made In China. All three films released this Friday, that is, on October 25. Just yesterday, it was reported that Made In China had been leaked by the notorious site Tamilrockers, a day after its release. Now, Housefull 4 has also been leaked online and the film’s pirated version is available on Tamilrockers.
It has only been two days since the release of Housefull 4. The film had a great opening and it managed to collect Rs 18.85 crore on Day 1. Now, with Housefull 4’s pirated version available online, it remains to be seen whether its box-office collection will be affected. Even earlier this month, Tamilrockers uploaded Hrithik Roshan, Vaani Kapoor, and Tiger Shroff’s highly-anticipated film, War and Amitabh Bachchan and Chiranjeevi’s Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy a day before its release. In the past, several web series and TV shows too have fallen prey to piracy and one of them was Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Saif Ali Khan’s Netflix show Sacred Games 2.

SpotboyE Editor Vickey Lalwani rated the film 3 stars and wrote, “A story of reincarnation and mixed identities whose origin stems from Akshay Kumar having glimpses of what happened in his life 600 years ago is fine, but what happens in Sitamgarh should have stayed in Sitamgarh and if not, shouldn't have been thrown out as at least a full-on 1-hour track. The storytelling tends to dip in that land of Rajas and Maharajas and by the time it recovers, a lot of time has been lost. Post interval, the comic caper picks up again. The loose ends are quickly tied up. The editing becomes slicker just like at the start. The climax is quite hilarious.”
