He's such a humble person; he never shows his anger. If things go wrong with anybody around him, he just takes it with a pinch of salt and moves ahead. He always looks at the positive side, and he's been a very good support as a friend to me, and I have enjoyed all my work with him till date. So that young Akshay from Suhaag till Welcome to the Jungle, the superstar, I have had a great journey with Akshay."

Over 30 actors? Feels a bit like they're trying to compensate for the script with star power. The first Welcome worked because of the chemistry between Nana Patekar and Anil Kapoor. Hope this isn't just a messy cameo-fest. Still, will watch for Akshay and Suniel Shetty together after ages.

Ahmed Khan directing... hmm. He's a great choreographer, but directing a comedy with such a huge cast is a big task. Fingers crossed! At least the music should be good. Excited to see Raveena Tandon back in a comedy.

Living in Mumbai, the hype for this is real! The posters are everywhere. It's perfect for a family outing during the summer holidays. My parents love the original, so we'll definitely go. Hope it's clean, fun entertainment.

The real star of the Welcome series was always Paresh Rawal and Nana Patekar. Without that iconic Majnu Bhai-Uday Bhai pairing, the soul feels missing. Johnny Lever and Rajpal Yadav are legends though, so hope they get good scenes. 🤞

So many production houses involved. Hope the final product is cohesive and not a patchwork of too many ideas. But yaar, after a long week at work, sometimes you just need a mindless comedy. I'm ready to be entertained!
