The box office battle continues to heat up as Welcome To The Jungle and Cocktail 2 register impressive milestones despite fresh competition. While Akshay Kumar’s comedy entertainer has continued its dream run by crossing the ₹118 crore mark and outperforming Alpha during its second weekend, Cocktail 2 has officially entered the coveted ₹100 crore club in India.
Both films have managed to sustain audience interest through positive word of mouth, making them two of the biggest Bollywood success stories currently playing in theatres.
Welcome To The Jungle crosses ₹118 crore after a strong second weekend
Welcome To The Jungle has maintained excellent momentum in its second weekend despite facing competition from Alia Bhatt’s Alpha.
The film collected ₹4.95 crore on Friday before witnessing a significant jump over the weekend, earning ₹7.92 crore on Saturday and an impressive ₹10.44 crore on Sunday. With these collections, the film’s India nett total now stands at ₹118.52 crore.
Welcome To The Jungle box office breakdown
- Week 1 (including Thursday previews): ₹95.21 crore
- Week 2 Weekend: ₹23.31 crore
- Total India Nett: ₹118.52 crore
Trade trends indicate that mass circuits continue to drive the film’s business, helping it post healthy collections even in its second weekend.
Weekdays will decide Welcome To The Jungle‘s next milestone
Having successfully held its ground against Alpha, the Akshay Kumar-led entertainer now faces another challenge with the arrival of Dhamaal 4 this Friday.
The coming weekdays will play a crucial role in determining the film’s lifetime box office total. A steady hold from Monday onwards could help Welcome To The Jungle continue its successful theatrical run before new competition arrives.
Cocktail 2 crosses the ₹100 crore mark in just 17 days
Meanwhile, Cocktail 2 has achieved a major milestone by entering the prestigious ₹100 crore India nett club.
The romantic comedy reached the landmark in 17 days, continuing its impressive theatrical run after a strong opening and consistently healthy collections over the following weeks.
The film’s worldwide gross collection has now climbed to ₹162.28 crore, underlining its success both in India and overseas.
Positive word of mouth keeps Cocktail 2 going strong
One of the biggest reasons behind Cocktail 2‘s sustained performance has been its positive audience response.
Strong word of mouth has helped the film maintain steady collections even after its opening weekend, allowing it to comfortably cross the ₹100 crore milestone and emerge as one of the year’s notable box office successes.
With Welcome To The Jungle continuing to dominate mass markets and Cocktail 2 adding another major milestone to its journey, both films have demonstrated that strong audience acceptance remains the biggest factor behind long theatrical runs.
