Mumbai, June 16 - Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar's comedy entertainer Welcome To The Jungle is set to miss Christmas 2024 weekend after it has reportedly been postponed to 2025. The movie is directed by Ahmed Khan and produced by Firoz Nadiadwala.

According to the report by Hindustan Times, Welcome 3 has been delayed as it has still multiple shooting schedules remaining, additionally, significant VFX work will be required after principal photography concludes which makes it hard to meet its Christmas weekend release.



Welcome 3 is scheduled to release on December 20, alongside Aamir Khan's Sitaare Zameen Par and the Hollywood movie, Mufasa: The Lion King.
