Akshay Kumar-led comedy entertainer Welcome to the Jungle has completed its second week in theatres with an estimated total collection of Rs 121.25 crore nett at the Indian box office. While the film continues to attract audiences, its second-week performance indicates a noticeable slowdown compared to its strong opening week.
The movie added approximately Rs 29 crore nett during its second week, taking its cumulative total beyond the Rs 120 crore mark. Although the milestone reinforces the film’s status as a successful theatrical release, the pace of collections has moderated significantly over the past several days.
Industry tracking suggests that the film enjoyed an impressive start during its first five days before witnessing a decline in momentum during the middle of its run. The second week recorded a considerably steeper drop than some recent comedy releases, making the upcoming weekends crucial for its final box office outcome.

| Period | Collection |

| Week One | Rs 92.25 Crore |
| Second Friday | Rs 4.25 Crore |
| Second Saturday | Rs 7.00 Crore |
| Second Sunday | Rs 8.75 Crore |
| Second Monday | Rs 2.35 Crore |
| Second Tuesday | Rs 3.00 Crore |
| Second Wednesday | Rs 1.90 Crore |
| Second Thursday | Rs 1.75 Crore |
| Total | Rs 121.25 Crore |
The film now enters a more competitive phase as Dhamaal 4 arrives in theatres targeting a similar audience segment. Competition between major comedy franchises often affects screen allocation and audience preference, making retention of box office momentum more challenging.
Despite the slowdown, Welcome to the Jungle remains one of the notable commercial performers of the year. The film’s ability to cross the Rs 100 crore mark highlights the continued appeal of established comedy franchises and ensemble entertainers in the Hindi film market.
For the producers, the film’s controlled production economics appear to have strengthened its commercial position. Industry analysts frequently point out that profitability depends not only on box office collections but also on production budgets, satellite rights, digital licensing, and overseas performance.
The coming weeks will determine where the film ultimately finishes its theatrical run. While stronger competition may limit growth potential, the film still has an opportunity to add meaningful numbers before concluding its run in cinemas.
