Sanjay Dutt, Ritesh Deshmukh, Arshad Warsi, Aashish Chaudhary, and Javed Jaffrey reprise their roles from the previous films, with Kangana Ranaut and Mallika Sherawat as new additions.

[3] A sequel titled Total Dhamaal was released in February 2019, with the main three cast members (Deshmukh, Warsi, and Jaffrey) reprising their roles.

At the 'Mahurat' of the film, it was announced that Riteish Deshmukh, Aashish Chaudhary, Arshad Warsi and Jaaved Jaaferi will be reprising their roles as friends again, while Sanjay Dutt plays a millionaire this time.

[4] Earlier, actress Kriti Sanon was chosen to play the role of Kamini, but reports suggested she refused and was subsequently replaced by Mallika Sherawat.

Barkha Sengupta was offered both the roles of Kamini & Kiya but she didn't sign the film because she could not agree with the script.

[5] Top critic Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama awarded the film 4/5 stars, saying that it is "seriously hilarious" and that "sometimes, a good laugh is all you need to make your day.

Try not to miss this one, it pledges hilarity in abundance..."[6] Nikhat Kazmi from the Times of India gave the film 3/5 stars and said "This one's definitely not for the fastidious, choosy viewer but for those who don't mind losing it for a bit, Double Dhamaal works like an average Bollywood comedy.

[8] Shakti Salgaokar of DNA gave the movie a one and half stars and wrote in his review: "Indra Kumar's recipe for double dhamaal is quite simple – sexual innuendo, potshots at popular films, bad mimicry, foreign locations, a generous dose of overacting, an item song and a gora villain.

And as he magnificently presents the climax of the film (which is funny in parts but overall ends up being a damp squib) he leaves you with a threat of a sequel.

"[10] Rachel Saltz of The New York Times wrote in her review: "The director, Indra Kumar, lets his baggy tale sprawl to 2 hours and 18 minutes and peppers it with references to other, better films and with movie talk in general.

"All characters are fictitious," someone says when the fools are caught scheming on camera, "and bear no resemblance to people living or dead."

[16] A sequel, and the third installment in the series, was announced after the release of Double Dhamaal, though the film was slammed by critics, and was a commercial success.

Director Indra Kumar has decided to do away with the female leads and bring back the entire cast from the hit film Dhamaal with one change.
