Mastiii 4 (transl. Fun 4) is a 2025 Indian Hindi-language sex comedy directed by Milap Zaveri and produced by Balaji Motion Pictures, Maruti International, and Sri Adhikari Brothers back the original trio—Riteish Deshmukh**, Vivek Oberoi, and Aftab Shivdasani—who once defined a generation of adult comedies in early-2000s Bollywood.
Released theatrically on 21 November 2025, Mastiii 4 was expected to ride heavily on nostalgia, ribald humor, and the tried-and-tested chemistry of its leads. Unfortunately, despite all the ingredients on paper, the film ended up being panned by critics and emerged as a box-office bomb, grossing only ₹15 crore worldwide—the lowest in the franchise’s history.
Story & Premise: Old Wine, Cracked Bottle
The film follows Amar, Meet, and Prem—three middle-aged men suffocating under monotonous married lives. Longing for their carefree bachelor days, they jump at the idea of a mysterious “Love Visa,” which promises a week of unrestricted freedom. What starts as a fantasy of fun, flirtation, and mischief quickly snowballs into chaos when their wives—played by Elnaaz Norouzi, Shreya Sharma, and Ruhi Singh—decide to bend the rules in their own way.
While the premise has the potential for situational comedy and satirical commentary on modern marriages, the execution relies heavily on loud gags, forced misunderstandings, and dated sexual innuendos. The screenplay stretches simple jokes far beyond their shelf life, making the narrative feel repetitive rather than playful.
Performances: Experienced Actors, Limited Material
Riteish Deshmukh once again proves why he remains the strongest comedic performer of the trio, injecting energy even into weak scenes. Vivek Oberoi and Aftab Shivdasani try to recreate their old rhythm, but the spark feels mechanical this time around. Supporting appearances by Arshad Warsi, Nargis Fakhri, and Tusshar Kapoor add brief moments of relief, though none leave a lasting impact.
A special appearance by Genelia Deshmukh in the song “Pakad Pakad” attempts to evoke nostalgia but feels more like a callback than a meaningful addition.
Direction & Tone: Loud Over Clever
Milap Zaveri’s direction opts for shock value over smart humor. Unlike the original Masti, which balanced adult comedy with situational wit, Mastiii 4 leans excessively on crude jokes and exaggerated performances. The pacing is uneven, with the second half dragging as the same misunderstandings repeat without escalation or payoff.
Music & Technical Aspects
The soundtrack, composed by Meet Bros and Sanjeev–Darshan, is energetic but largely forgettable. Songs like “One In Crore” and “Pakad Pakad” are designed for virality rather than storytelling. Technically, the film looks polished, but slick visuals cannot compensate for a thin script.

Final Verdict
Mastiii 4 stands as a cautionary tale about stretching a franchise beyond its natural lifespan. While the original Masti films thrived on novelty and chemistry, this fourth outing feels tired, noisy, and creatively exhausted. For fans hoping for a return to form, the film is a disappointment; for new viewers, it offers little reason to invest.
