Welcome To The Jungle X Review: Is Akshay’s Film Worth The Hype? Fans Reveal What They Liked & Disliked

Welcome To The Jungle X Review: Akshay Kumar has returned to one of Bollywood's most recognisable comedy franchises with Welcome To The Jungle, the third film in the Welcome series. The film has drawn attention mainly because it brings back Akshay to the madcap world that fans still associate with the 2007 hit Welcome. Directed by Ahmed Khan, the adventure comedy is being positioned as a large-scale ensemble entertainer. The film features a packed cast that includes Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty, Paresh Rawal, Shreyas Talpade, Farida Jalal, Disha Patani, Jacqueline Fernandez and Rajpal Yadav, among several others.

On the other hand, one of the biggest talking points about Welcome To The Jungle is Akshay's reunion with Suniel Shetty. The two actors, who have delivered several memorable comic moments together in Hindi cinema, are sharing screen space again after a long gap. Their pairing has already raised expectations among fans of mainstream Bollywood comedy. While the Welcome franchise is known for chaotic humour, colourful characters and fast-paced situations. With Welcome To The Jungle, the makers appear to be aiming for a bigger canvas and a more crowded comic setup. As Welcome To The Jungle has hit the theatres, here's what the audience has to say about it

Welcome To The Jungle Twitter Review: What Audience Disliked

On other hand, a part of the audience felt that Welcome To The Jungle was sluggish and stretched in the second half. A user wrote, "#WelcomeToTheJungle The first half was the most fun I have had in years. It was filled with insanely hilarious moments and some of them are so funny that they are sure to be classics. But the 2nd half was himmatwala level. Some humour was fine but overall poor 2nd half". Another user tweeted, "Jabrdastti ki comedy kar di Jacquline ne to acha kiya lekin Disha ke over reaction 😭 Flop".

Meanwhile, Akshay spoke about working with Farida Jalal in their first full fledged comedy film and stated, "We have seen so many of Farida ma'am's films. We have seen her do serious roles all the time, starring in tragedies and crying. She has even played my mother in the film Elaan (1994), a very good film which I will remember for the rest of my life. But we never saw her in a comedy. I can say that out of all the actors in the film, you will remember her the most. She has never done comedies like this but this is just the beginning".
