The shooting of the upcoming Bollywood film Welcome To The Jungle has recently come to a sudden stop. While some reports suggested that the shooting was paused due to non-payment of dues to actors and crew, a more reliable source has now clarified the real reason behind the delay. According to a report by Hindustan Times, the film’s production was halted because of the recent terror attack in Pahalgam, Kashmir, not due to financial problems.
Welcome To The Jungle Shoot Halted After Attack
A person close to the production team explained that about seventy percent of the film has already been completed. The remaining thirty percent was supposed to be shot in Kashmir. However, due to the unfortunate and tragic incident in Pahalgam, the team had to postpone the remaining shoot for safety reasons. The source denied the earlier claims made by Pinkvilla that financial problems had delayed the shoot. Pinkvilla had reported that the film faced hurdles like unpaid dues to actors and crew members, and some actors had even left the project. However, the production team strongly denied this, saying that most of the cast is still on board and supportive.
Welcome To The Jungle is a big-budget comedy film directed by Ahmed Khan. It features a large star cast including Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty, Paresh Rawal, Anil Kapoor, Jacqueline Fernandez, Raveena Tandon, and Disha Patani. The film was first announced in 2023 and quickly became one of the most anticipated movies of the year. It was originally planned to release during Christmas 2025, but now the release may be delayed due to the shooting halt.
