Ajay Devgn Moves Dhamaal 4 to July 17 to Avoid Clash With Akshay Kumar’s Welcome to the Jungle

Trade reports credit a direct agreement between the stars to create a wider theatrical window for both comedies.

Overview

  • Dhamaal 4, which several outlets reported Saturday had shifted from early July, is now slated for July 17 while Welcome to the Jungle remains on June 26.
  • Industry sources say Devgn and Kumar spoke one-on-one and chose a roughly three-week gap to limit overlap and protect box-office returns.
  • No official announcement has been issued by the producers or distributors, so the revised date is reported but not yet confirmed.
  • The added space gives each family comedy time to build word-of-mouth across opening weekends, a pattern that often boosts total sales in India’s theaters.
  • Both films are franchise ensemble projects, with Indra Kumar directing Dhamaal 4 and Ahmed Khan directing Welcome to the Jungle.
