With favorable word of mouth, the film could easily cross 100 crore and likewise reach the 150 crore milestone.
Welcome To The Jungle is the third installment of the highly popular Welcome franchise and, most significantly, brings back Akshay Kumar after the cult first installment. The thrill is already high, and it is anticipated to begin its theatrical run on a high note.
