Fans have particularly praised Akshay Kumar's comic timing and the nostalgic entertainment factor that reminds audiences of the earlier films in the franchise. While critics have given mixed reviews, the film's light-hearted humour and star power appear to be working in its favour at the ticket windows. Welcome To The Jungle scored around 19 crore net on its opening day, including paid previews, and is expected to post a solid jump in collections over Saturday and Sunday shows. If the momentum continues, the film could end its opening weekend on a strong note.
