What netizens said

A user writes, “
The first half is packed with non-stop comedy, a gripping story, and surprisingly avoids feeling illogical. Every character gets their moment, making the ensemble cast work beautifully. Akshay Kumar once again proves why he’s the ultimate entertainer,” and adds, “The climax is entertaining and features a few surprise cameos that elevate the finale. Ahmed Khan’s direction keeps the film engaging, the background score is energetic, and the songs in the first half add to the fun.”

A satisfied user writes, “SO. SO. MANY. META REFERENCES 😂🔥It’s been a long time since a comedy had the entire crowd laughing this hard. The theatre is enjoying every minute of it!”

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 was a slow start, given the franchise’s goodwill and the star-cast of more than 30 actors.
