Welcome To The Jungle Opens Second Wednesday With 5 Percent Occupancy, Heads For 2 Crore Day
Welcome To The Jungle opened its second Wednesday with around 5 percent occupancy in morning shows today, which is day 13. The start was slow across multiplexes and single screens, and the film is showing drops in collection through this week’s weekdays. After a decent second Monday, the numbers have softened further as the week progresses. The film is still expected to collect around 2 crore today.
The 2 crore estimate for Wednesday shows that Welcome To The Jungle is holding on, but the downward trend during weekdays is clear. Evening shows will decide if the film can stay close to this mark or slip further. Word of mouth has helped the film so far, but with a working day and reduced shows, pulling crowds has become tougher compared to the weekend.
The road ahead is getting tough for a hit verdict. The film has done well to reach the success zone, but it now needs to fight to retain screens and footfalls with new competition around the corner. A consistent dip through weekdays makes it harder to build momentum for the third weekend. The team will be hoping for a better evening pickup to limit the fall today.
With 5 percent morning occupancy and a projected 2 crore day, Welcome To The Jungle is in a phase where every weekday matters. The film has already proven itself with audiences, but sustaining that run will require stronger evening and night trends. The coming days will decide if it can stay stable before the next big release takes over screens.
