Despite opening to mixed reviews from critics and moviegoers alike, Welcome to the Jungle is performing well in tier-2 and tier-3 markets. It has also remained the dominant choice at single screens over Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon-starrer Cocktail 2 because of the nostalgia value attached with the legacy Welcome IP.
Directed by Ahmed Khan, Welcome To The Jungle follows a group of gangsters, criminals and eccentric characters whose lives collide in a jungle near the border, triggering a chaotic mix of crime, confusion and action-packed misadventures.
The film features a star-studded ensemble led by Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty, Paresh Rawal, Arshad Warsi, Jackie Shroff, Raveena Tandon, Johnny Lever, Rajpal Yadav, Lara Dutta, Disha Patani, Jacqueline Fernandez, Tusshar Kapoor, Farida Jalal, and others.
The film was released in theatres worldwide on June 26, a week ahead of Alia Bhatt and Sharvari Wagh-starrer spy actioner Alpha.
