Akshay Kumar’s comedy drama just hit a milestone worth celebrating — and one worth a reality check. “Welcome To The Jungle” crossed the ₹125 crore mark at the Indian box office over its third weekend, but the numbers tell a story of fading momentum rather than a victory lap.
The film collected ₹4.30 crore across its third weekend, with ₹1.85 crore coming in on Sunday alone. That’s roughly an 80% drop compared to the previous weekend — a steep decline that all but rules out the film reaching HIT status, something that seemed genuinely possible just a week ago.’

Directed by Ahmed Khan, the film is now clearly in its closing stretch. Trade estimates suggest it will wrap its third week somewhere between ₹7-9 crore, pushing the total closer to ₹130 crore, with maybe another ₹5 crore trickling in before the theatrical run ends — landing the lifetime total around ₹135 crore nett.
Welcome To The Jungle: Box Office Breakdown
| Period | Collection (Nett) |
|---|---|
| Week One | ₹92.25 crore |
| Week Two | ₹29.00 crore |
| 3rd Friday | ₹0.85 crore |
| 3rd Saturday | ₹1.60 crore |
| 3rd Sunday | ₹1.85 crore (est.) |
| Total | ₹125.60 crore |
For context, that final tally would land well short of both “Bhooth Bangla” and “Housefull 5’s” lifetime numbers. On the bright side, the film’s relatively modest production costs mean it’s still likely to be classified a commercial success — just not the blockbuster its franchise legacy might have suggested, especially given how the original “Welcome” ranks among the highest-grossing Bollywood films of its era.
