Boasting a star-studded cast of over 30 actors, 'Welcome to the Jungle' is a highly anticipated action-comedy film. It marks the third installment in the popular 'Welcome' franchise and is directed by Ahmed Khan. The film is scheduled for release in Indian cinemas on June 26, 2026. A grand event was held before the release, where Akshay Kumar had a great time interacting with the entire star cast.
**Akshay's playful banter with Farida Jalal**
During the 'Welcome 3' event, Akshay Kumar assisted Farida Jalal as she came onto the stage. When he asked her to take her seat, she insisted that he sit first. Responding in a humorous vein, Akshay said, "If I let you stand, do you think the media would let that slide?" His remark drew laughter from everyone present.
**' They are the reason memes are made'**
After his lighthearted exchange with Farida Jalal, Akshay invited Rajpal Yadav to the stage, remarking, "He is an actor whose single expression is enough; after all, he is the reason so many memes are created."
**'Health is paramount'**
Speaking on the subjects of health and money, Akshay said, "I have seen many cases where people earned money, lost it for some reason, and then worked hard to earn it back; however, one rarely sees someone regain their health once lost. Health is the most important thing—nothing is greater than health, not even money. That is why I pray to God to keep everyone in good health."
