Sonam Bajwa defended her Bollywood debut in 'Housefull 5', acknowledging audience criticism regarding the portrayal and objectification of female characters. She stated that differing opinions are part of cinema and that audiences often watch films where female characters are glamorous with less narrative agency. Bajwa accepted the role knowing the franchise's ensemble nature and limited scope for her character, viewing it as a strategic choice for her entry into Hindi cinema. She indicated her upcoming project, 'Ek Deewani Ki Deewaniyat,' will showcase a more performance-driven role.
