Welcome To The Jungle Day 14 Advance Booking: Maintains a Steady Hold Ahead of Dhamaal 4 Release; Sells 6,897 Tickets in National Chains
Welcome To The Jungle continues to display remarkable stability as it enters Day 14 (Second Thursday), maintaining a respectable advance booking trend despite nearing the end of its second week and with Dhamaal 4 set to arrive in cinemas tomorrow. The Akshay Kumar-led comedy has once again demonstrated its ability to attract audiences, even as the box office prepares for a major shift.
According to the latest tracking, Welcome To The Jungle has sold 6,897 tickets across PVR INOX and Cinepolis till 10:30 PM for its second Thursday. While the numbers are slightly lower than Wednesday's advances, the hold remains healthy and falls well within expected weekday trends.
The film has now settled into a consistent weekday pattern after benefiting from the Cinema Day boost earlier this week. More importantly, the current trend suggests that audience interest has not faded despite the arrival of new competition and the impending release of another major comedy franchise.
One of the biggest strengths of Welcome To The Jungle continues to be its exceptional performance across Tier 2 and Tier 3 markets, where family audiences have embraced the entertainer since its release. These centres remain the backbone of the film's theatrical run, consistently contributing a major share of its overall business.
Metro cities including Mumbai, Delhi-NCR, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Pune, Ahmedabad, and Kolkata continue to post steady occupancies, particularly during evening shows. While multiplex admissions have naturally slowed during the weekdays, the film continues to witness encouraging footfalls, reflecting sustained audience acceptance.
Trade analysts believe Welcome To The Jungle has exceeded expectations by successfully holding its ground through a competitive second week. The film not only faced the release of Alpha but also managed to maintain momentum throughout its second weekend, giving it a solid platform heading into the final day before Dhamaal 4 enters theatres.
Friday will mark a significant challenge, as Dhamaal 4 is expected to occupy a large share of premium showcasing across multiplexes. Despite the inevitable reduction in screens, Welcome To The Jungle has already built a strong box office foundation and is expected to continue attracting family audiences even after the new release arrives.
With a successful two-week run behind it and over ₹100 crore already crossed, the film now looks to maximize its remaining theatrical business while relying on positive word-of-mouth and loyal audience support.
