The producers of Welcome To The Jungle have launched the trailer for the much-awaited comedy-action entertainer, providing a sneak peek into the movie that revolves around identity confusions, extravagant action sequences and signature humor of the series.
Starring Akshay Kumar as the director, this comedy-action movie will be the third in the Welcome series. It has also seen one of the largest ensemble casts ever put together in Bollywood.
In the movie, we get to see Akshay Kumar in a role of an aspiring actor trying to make a comeback through the shooting of his film that stars a successful actress played by Jacqueline Fernandez. However, what seems like a regular movie shoot turns into a nightmare for him when the entire unit reaches a border village.
