Welcome To The Jungle packs a solid punch in its entirety, and the madness has just begun!

Welcome To The Jungle released in cinemas on June 26 and on the first day at the box-office, it made Rs 15 crore which is a slow start, given the franchise's goodwill and the star-cast of more than 30 actors. Amid mixed reviews from audiences and critics, the collections over the weekend are awaited.

Paid preview collections

Welcome To The Jungle opened to paid previews on June 25. It opened to moderate numbers and collected Rs 3.75 crore which is 91% less than what Dhurandhar: The Revenge minted on its paid previews that was Rs 44 crore.
