Papa Toh Band Bajaye vibes hit hard in Akshay Kumar, Nana Patekar and Housefull 5 team’s The Phoogdi Dance song

As a devoted admirer, I had the privilege of introducing the talented ensemble for Housefull 5 in the captivating track titled “The Phoogdi Dance,” which was unveiled by the producers on Saturday, May 31, 2025. This song masterfully blends traditional Konkan folk elements with contemporary rap, reminiscent of the iconic Papa Toh Band Bajaye number from Housefull 2.

In the video lasting approximately two minutes and seven seconds, Nana Patekar takes center stage and sets the pace for Akshay Kumar, Abhishek Bachchan, Riteish Deshmukh, Jacqueline Fernandez, Sonam Bajwa, and the rest of the group as they follow his dance steps.

Additionally, the tune features notable cameos from actors like Nargis Fakhri, Chitrangada Singh, Fardeen Khan, Chunky Pandey, Johnny Lever, and Shreyas Talpade, enhancing the overall celebrity ambiance.

Or, in a more conversational tone:

Apart from that, you’ll spot some popular faces such as Nargis Fakhri, Chitrangada Singh, Fardeen Khan, Chunky Pandey, Johnny Lever, and Shreyas Talpade gracing the screen. This only adds to the star-studded feel of the production.

Listen to the song here: 

Towards the end of the video, Jackie Shroff and Sanjay Dutt are seen dancing within prison cells, and the video ends with some funny mishaps that create a cheerful atmosphere. Choreographed by Adil Shaikh, this track includes lyrics and vocals provided by Kratex, while Patya The Doc delivers a lively rap segment.

Overwhelmed with excitement, I couldn’t help but join the chorus of comments flooding in. One fan exclaimed, “Dad, turn off the music! This is hilarious, grandpa rapping!” Another added, “Dad, shut up and let the music play.” A third echoed, “The most honest line ever, ‘dad, shut up and let the music play.'” While another reminisced, “‘Dad, shut up and let the music play’ was a wave of nostalgia.

1. User A admired Nana Patekar’s performance and asked, “I’m curious to know what made Nana Patekar agree to perform this pop rap song.”

2. User B expressed a sense of nostalgia by saying, “I see traces of Bluffmaster and Heyy Babyy in this. Unfortunately, those days are long gone. It marks the end of our childhood.”

Under the guidance of director Tarun Mansukhani, Housefull 5 is set to bring back the unique combination of outrageous humor and extravagant aesthetics that the franchise is known for. The movie is planned to premiere in theaters on June 6.

In the year 2010, the initial installment of the Housefull series, produced by Sajid Khan, hit the big screen. This movie starred Akshay Kumar alongside Jiah Khan, Arjun Rampal, Jacqueline Fernandez, Lara Dutta and Chunky Panday. The second film, again under Sajid Khan’s direction, premiered in 2012, followed by Housefull 3, directed by a team of Sajid-Farhad, in 2016. Lastly, Housefull 4 was directed by Farhad Samji and released in 2019.
