Akshay Kumar's fans are eagerly awaiting his next outing, Welcome To The Jungle. The film boasts an ensemble cast packed with A-list stars, with Akshay headlining the franchise. According to a recent report, the film has already recovered a significant portion of its investment ahead of release, thanks to the sale of its ancillary rights.
The makers have reportedly secured substantial revenue through OTT, satellite, and audio rights, making the project financially secure even before its theatrical release. Producers have earned around ₹120 crore through the sale of the film's OTT, satellite, audio, and other ancillary rights.
Akshay Kumar has charged only ₹1.8 crore as his upfront remuneration for the film, but has included a profit-sharing clause in his agreement, reflecting his confidence in the film's commercial potential. The actor is expected to receive 72 per cent of the film's Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) earnings, while the producer will retain the remaining 28 per cent.
Welcome To The Jungle is the third installment in the Welcome franchise, directed by Ahmed Khan and slated to release in theatres on June 26.
