Welcome to the Jungle Update: Akshay Kumar Action-Comedy Biggie Eyed for Christmas 2025 Release
Those hoping for a quick update on Akshay Kumar's Welcome to the Jungle can finally rejoice. After months of speculation and a delay, the makers came out with a new schedule for the film's production and release. The third chapter of this much-loved franchise will now be positioned for a grand holiday countdown release on Christmas 2025.

Production was slated to begin in May 2024, aiming for a same-year December release, but Welcome to the Jungle ran into some untoward production-related snags. Reports suggest there was a lack of coordination and delays in set construction, which slowed the momentum. But now that all the hurdles are behind them, all excitement is focused on July 2025, when the new shooting schedule presumably kicks off.
The film sees an ensemble cast headed by Akshay Kumar and features a cocktail of Bollywood heavyweights and comic powerhouses. The film is not being talked about because of its cast alone — Welcome to the Jungle is pitched as one of the most ambitious comedy-action spectacles ever to be created under the Welcome banner.
