Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar is back in the spotlight as his latest release Welcome to the Jungle continues its impressive run at the box office. Directed by Ahmed Khan, the film is witnessing a solid upward trend, especially over its opening weekend.
Released in theatres on June 26, with paid previews a day earlier, the film has managed to draw consistent footfall, backed by positive word-of-mouth and its star-studded appeal.
Day 3 Box Office: Strong Sunday Growth
According to trade estimates, the film collected approximately ₹22.49 crore on Sunday, marking its highest single-day collection so far. This significant jump reflects strong audience interest and a typical weekend surge.
The film’s box office journey so far:
- Friday: ₹15.25 crore

- Paid Previews: ₹3.75 crore
With this, Welcome to the Jungle has crossed a solid ₹61.49 crore net in India within just three days of release.
A Star-Studded Entertainer
