Kareena Kapoor Khan is returning to Rohit Shetty’s much‑loved comedy franchise with ‘Golmaal 5’, marking her comeback to the series after more than 15 years.
According to a report in Bollywood Hungama, Kareena’s casting took time to finalise due to scheduling and logistical considerations. A source told the publication, “Kareena Kapoor Khan’s casting took time as there were dates and other issues that needed to be considered. Rohit Shetty and Ajay Devgn were very keen to sign the actress. Even Kareena expressed the desire to return to the Golmaal franchise.
