Actor Suniel Shetty has opened up about a positive opening to his latest release 'Welcome to the Jungle', how his film has not just been accepted by the audience but also appreciated.
Speaking with ANI, Suniel Shetty shared, "We're having fun. The film is going well. Of course, there's still a week left. We'll see how it goes. Here's a lot of appreciation. The best part is that people are laughing. Every person who watched the film shared how they went with their family, their kids, and that even the kids enjoyed it." The actor further spoke about how many people have reached out to him and shared messages. "A lot of people messaged me and said, 'Anna, don't work too much. Do good work. This is your rebirth. It feels good. After so many years and after such a big gap, a commercial film comes, which hasn't just opened in theatres but is being appreciated too," he continued. Shetty also reflected on his bond with co-stars Akshay Kumar and Paresh Rawal, suggesting how it helped them create a better camaraderie onscreen. "Our real-life bond has helped a lot in this film. I think it gives people confidence and trust. When you give these three characters, it's because of our shared and long history; people have trust. They believe that entertainment will definitely happen," he said. He went on to heap high praise on the rest of the film's cast and the entire team of Welcome to the Jungle. Suniel Shetty also hailed director Ahmed Khan for keeping his faith in the story. "The conviction with which Ahmed Khan makes films, he is always convinced that this is going to work. After a point, we also have to follow the same conviction as actors; otherwise, the film will never be successful," he said. While reflecting on 'Welcome to the Jungle', Shetty also dropped a brief update on the much-awaited 'Hera Pheri' sequel. "I think the status is that 'Hera Pheri' sequel should be made, now that this film has been released. I am sure many people are looking forward to it. Even I want this. The film should be made, and it should be a good one, especially for producer Firoz Nadiadwala," the actor said. Coming back to 'Welcome to the Jungle', the Ahmed Khan directorial features a star-studded ensemble, including the likes of Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty, Disha Patani, Jacqueline Fernandez, Arshad Warsi, Jackie Shroff, Paresh Rawal, Raveena Tandon, Lara Dutta, and Johny Lever among others. It was released in theatres on June 26. (ANI)
