The comedy film 'Welcome to the Jungle,' directed by Ahmed Khan and starring Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty, and Paresh Rawal, has concluded its first week of release. The movie has comfortably surpassed ₹87 crore in domestic net collections and is nearing ₹90 crore for its opening week.
Worldwide, the film's gross has crossed ₹129 crore. Its initial performance included a strong opening weekend, amassing ₹63.75 crore net domestically. The film experienced a slight dip on its sixth day, collecting ₹6.15 crore net, but is expected to finish its first week just over ₹90 crore net.
Looking ahead, the film's second week will see increased competition with the release of 'Alpha,' a new production from YRF. This new release is anticipated to capture a significant share of screens and audience attention, likely causing a steep drop in 'Welcome to the Jungle's' collections.
Projections suggest 'Welcome to the Jungle' could settle into a range of ₹2-3 crore net on its second Friday, with weekday collections in the second week potentially ranging from ₹1-2 crore net per day.
The film commenced with ₹3.75 crore from previews, followed by ₹15.25 crore on its official opening day. Weekend collections peaked at ₹24.75 crore on Sunday, its highest single-day gross. Weekday collections saw a slight increase on Tuesday before dropping on Wednesday.
