Welcome To The Jungle Box Office Collection Day 4: Akshay Kumar’s Welcome To The Jungle has passed its first weekday test with a respectable hold at the box office. After an encouraging opening weekend, the comedy-action entertainer saw the expected dip on its first Monday but maintained steady collections despite competition from other films in theatres.
According to trade tracker Sacnilk, Welcome To The Jungle collected an estimated Rs 8.50 crore net in India on Day 4.
While the figure is lower than Sunday’s earnings, it is considered a healthy Monday hold for a commercial entertainer that relies heavily on family audiences and word of mouth. With the latest numbers, the film’s India net collection stands at approximately Rs 72.25 crore, while its India gross has reached Rs 85.67 crore after four days in cinemas.

The film enjoyed an impressive start at the box office, driven by franchise nostalgia, Akshay Kumar’s return to the comedy genre and a star-studded ensemble cast. It opened with Rs 15.25 crore net on Friday, in addition to Rs 3.75 crore earned through paid previews. Collections picked up over the weekend, with the film earning Rs 20 crore on Saturday before recording its biggest single-day haul of Rs 24.75 crore on Sunday.
Although Monday saw the expected decline in business, the film has managed to retain a significant portion of its audience, indicating that positive family footfalls continue to support its theatrical run. Trade analysts will now closely watch whether it can remain stable through the weekdays before entering its second weekend.
