After ‘Hera Pheri 2’, is ‘Welcome to the Jungle’ in trouble?
Reports indicate that the makers have cancelled several shooting schedules multiple times over the past six months.

Is the Akshay Kumar-starrer in trouble?
As per the Pinkvilla report, “The actors have been allotting dates for the shoot of Welcome To The Jungle to producer Firoz Nadiadwala, and the same stands cancelled at the last minute due to logistical and financial issues.”
The report further added that unexpected cancellations of the shoot have caused the actors to remain idle during those scheduled days, leading to confusion and chaos.
However, a close source to the production revealed the actual reason, stating, “The team has already completed 70% of the shoot for Welcome To The Jungle. They had planned to film the remaining 30% in Kashmir, but the unfortunate Pahalgam attack forced them to postpone the schedule.”
Furthermore, the insider revealed that the team had fully prepared the grand final schedule, stating, “They had locked the entire schedule, which included helicopters, over 250 horses with horsemen, and 1200 junior artists.”
