Welcome To The Jungle box office collection day 6: Akshay Kumar's BLOCKBUSTER mints Rs 104.25 net in India

Welcome To The Jungle box office collection day 6: Following a solid opening weekend, Akshay Kumar-Raveena Tandon starrer Welcome To The Jungle slowed down a bit on its first Wednesday. For those who came in late, Welcome To The Jungle has been appreciated by many for its fun-filled entertainment, and star-studded cast. Viewers thoroughly enjoyed its light-hearted humour, lively performances, and mass appeal. The film's songs, plot and actors' flawless performances struck a chord with moviegoers. Even though the weekday box office has slowed after a strong opening, the positive word of mouth has worked in the film's favour.

Welcome To The Jungle box office collection day 6

On Day 6, Welcome To The Jungle (Welcome 3) collected a net of Rs 6.00 Cr across 9,851 shows. This brings total India gross collections to 104.25 Cr and total India net collections to Rs 87.50 Cr so far. Overseas, the film collected Rs 2.00 Cr on Day 6, taking its total overseas gross to Rs 24.95 Cr so far. This pushes the worldwide gross collection to Rs 129.20 Cr.

What is Raveena's take on Welcome To The Jungle?

In a recent interview, Raveena Tandon reminded everyone that Welcome To The Jungle is meant to be a comedy spoof and a satire, and that it shouldn't be taken too seriously. She told NDTV, "If they're looking for realism, justifications and logic in a comedy film, then they haven't seen many Hollywood comedies either. If you look at the greats - Jim Carrey's films, Adam Sandler's films - unless they have an emotional track, it's different. Look at Leslie Nielsen's films, Steve Martin's films, or Dumb and Dumber, which was a super hit - do you expect logic from it? It's like expecting logic from a Mr. Bean episode. So I don't know what people are talking about, but yes, I'm very happy that it's doing well." "And more than that, I'm very happy that people are returning to the theatres. The industry was going through a tough time and whatever it takes to get people back into theatres - keep them entertained, keep them laughing - is what's most important right now," she added.

Gaurav Khanna breaks silence on Akanksha Chamola divorce rumours; says, “Main humesha support karunga Akanksha ko, meri biwi hai yaar”

Actor and Bigg Boss 19 winner Gaurav Khanna has finally reacted to the ongoing speculation surrounding his personal life after his wife, Akanksha Chamola, made a startling revelation on the stage of Lock Upp Season 2. Before entering the reality show's prison, Akanksha claimed that she and Gaurav have been living separately for over a year and are currently in the process of getting divorced, leaving fans surprised.

Amid the buzz surrounding their relationship, Gaurav has chosen to focus on extending his support to Akanksha and her participation in the reality show. The actor was recently spotted outside the sets of the comedy-cooking reality show Laughter Chefs, where paparazzi asked him about how he has been coping with the ongoing attention around his personal life. Responding to the questions, Gaurav said, “Bas yaar, wahi yaar jo pehle tha wahi haal hai abhi bhi. Pyaar abhi bhi utna hai, support abhi bhi utna hai… Main toh humesha support karunga Akanksha ko, meri biwi hai yaar. Pyaar kiya toh piche kyu hatu?(I'm the same as I was before. The love is still the same, and the support is still the same. I will always support Akanksha; she's my wife. If I've loved her, why would I step back now?)”

When a paparazzo further remarked, “Bhai lekin controversy bahut jyada hogayi hai (Brother, but the controversy has become too big),” Gaurav maintained his stance and replied, “All the very best to Akanksha for life. Main humesha uske sath khada hu aur usko support kar raha hu. Vo acha khele aur jeet ke aaye (I will always stand by her and support her. I hope she plays well and returns as the winner).”

Gaurav's comments come shortly after Akanksha's revelation on Lock Upp Season 2, where she stated that the couple has been living separately for more than a year and is heading towards a divorce after nearly a decade of marriage. Her statement quickly became a major talking point on social media, with fans expressing shock over the development.

The revelation has also led many to revisit the timeline of their relationship, particularly questioning whether the couple was already facing difficulties when Gaurav was inside the Bigg Boss house last year. Adding to the speculation, several social media users pointed out that despite Akanksha's claims of separation, the couple had shared multiple affectionate photos and videos together during the first few months of 2026. Their posts included romantic moments, playful proposal-themed videos, love confessions and kisses, prompting many to wonder whether the contrasting narratives were part of a publicity strategy or simply reflected a more complex personal situation.

While speculation around their relationship continues online, Gaurav Khanna has made it clear that he intends to support Akanksha publicly, wishing her well for her journey on Lock Upp Season 2 and reiterating that his support for her remains unchanged.

'He wouldn't do it in front of Salman': Ram Kapoor faces BACKLASH for showing tantrum over water during Lock Upp 2 task

Actor Ram Kapoor is once again in the middle of online chatter, especially after the newest episode of Lock Upp 2. This new season already had a few back-and-forth moments, with arguments and run-ins popping up quite often, and now it's Ram's actions during one task that have turned into a whole discussion among viewers. During a task inside the house, Ram complained that contestants had not been provided with drinking water despite repeatedly asking for it.

Ram Kapoor's tantrums inside Lock Upp 2

Expressing his frustration, he warned the makers, "I have been asking for water for a long time; you guys are making us do this, not giving water. It's not right. Send water."

When water did not arrive before the task was nearly over, Ram walked into the middle of the task area and refused to let the game continue. Host Riteish Deshmukh cautioned him that he could be hit by a paintball if he stayed there. Responding to the warning, Ram said, "lagne do, aajao maaro."

Host Riteish explains the water-bottle rule

Riteish then explained that contestants had already been given their own water bottles and it was their responsibility to carry them during tasks. After hearing the explanation, Ram stepped aside and the task resumed.

Internet reacts to Ram Kapoor's conduct

Soon after the episode aired, clips from the incident began circulating on social media, with many viewers criticising the actor's conduct. One comment read, "This is just too much Ram Kapoor." Another wrote, "Why is he overacting so much?" A third comment read, "he wouldn't dare to do all this infront of Salman Khan."

Another user wrote, "This was so embarrassing, pure entitled behaviour."

One internet user also commented, "Maybe he forgot he is in Lock Upp, why would he get any special treatment?"

When Ram Kapoor was criticised for his 'gang-rape' comment

This is the second time Ram Kapoor has come under fire since entering the Lock Upp 2 house. Earlier, he was criticised after defending his past remarks comparing his hectic promotional schedule to feeling gang-raped, describing it as his "sense of humour."

Contestant Shreya Kalra objected to his comments and called him out for joking about gang rape. However, Ram responded by saying he was still learning from his mistakes and would continue to do so. His response drew criticism online, while several viewers praised Shreya for confronting him.

About Lock Upp 2

Hosted by Riteish Deshmukh and Farah Khan, Lock Upp 2 features 15 contestants this season, including Dheeraj Dhoopar, Akanksha Chamola, Shivangi Joshi, Harshad Chopra, Shreya Kalra, Yogesh Rawat, Pamela Serena and Akanksha Choudhary, among others.

After registering a strong opening weekend, the movie has continued its momentum with a solid performance on its first Monday. According to the latest update from Sacnilk, Welcome To The Jungle collected 8.50 crore on its fourth day of release.
