"People Think I'm an Expensive Director"—Ahmed Khan Reveals Welcome To The Jungle Budget Just ₹125 Cr!

Smirking with a smirk, Ahmed Khan, who is working on an expensive film, Hasu Ki Hui, painted a picture of himself as a cost-controlled director in telling the media that his mega-budget comedy Welcome to the Jungle, which was closed with a controlled Rs. 125 crore, is left aside from these rumors.

Choreographer-director Ahmed Khan has commented on the notion that he's an expensive director to work with, saying, “People think I'm an expensive director, but I'm not; my last film, Hell, Welcome to the Jungle, was only ₹125 crore.”

Although it has a big ensemble, from intense reports it's been claimed that the filmmaker should have shared the profits with actor Akshay Kumar, the film was nonetheless made swiftly and was completed with only 75 eight-hour shifts. Smart budgeting and rapid execution contributed immensely to keeping costs under control," Khan said.

The director said it was the discipline and preproduction planning of the team that has resulted in a large-scale entertainer for a reasonable cost. Reportedly, the film has already made back its budget with the non-theatrical rights.

The suggestion of a budget bump for Bollywood films that are profitable comes as a surprise exactly when the conversation is swinging in their favor that Ahmed Khan is a director worth canvassing for a large-scale, on-a-budget film that has commercial potential. The action- and comedy-filled trailer has left WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE with plenty of buzz.
