Welcome to the Jungle and urged everyone to first enjoy
Bhooth Bangla. He added, "After that, before
Hera Pheri (3), you’ll get to watch Welcome To The Jungle, a truly mad, mad, mad film. I feel fortunate to have been part of it, where you’ll see a massive ensemble of 27 actors. Perhaps, in the last 20 years of cinema, you won’t have seen a cast this big."
