Welcome To The Jungle collected Rs. 2.75 crore on its second discounted Tuesday. The movie registered a 20 per cent spike over Monday. The movie should have had a better jump on Tuesday, since the ticket prices were discounted to affordable rates. The running cume of the comedy drama now stands at Rs. 117.75 crore nett at the Indian box office.
The Akshay Kumar starrer is looking to close its second week at Rs. 120 crore. It will face Dhamaal 4 from the coming weekend, which might slow down its momentum at the box office. Based on the current trends, Welcome To The Jungle might not be able to surpass Bhooth Bangla’s lifetime run, but it is on the way to smash over the Rs. 150 crore mark at the box office.
The film is certainly a success, but HIT will be cutting close now. Fortunately, the costs involved are very reasonable despite being a film from a big brand, i.e., Welcome. Had the film cost as much as Housefull 5, it would have been tough for it. Looking from other pov, while the low costs have made the film a success, the grosses are a bit of a disappointment for the brand value of Welcome.
The original Welcome was amongst the biggest grossers of all time, while the second one, despite not having Akshay Kumar in the lead, managed to open strongly and put up good final numbers. In that context, this one is a bit underwhelming.
