WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE and DHAMAAL 4 had practically similar collections India in the first week with the main difference being Mumbai circuit where DHAMAAL 4 came out a couple of crore ahead. That is the difference in final first week collections as well. In the long run, this will also be the biggest difference between the films.
The difference in other circuits at the end will be mainly down to the fact that DHAMAAL 4 got benefit of a better release date as it was the last Hindi release of a packed period. But in the Maharashtra/Gujarat block, the difference is content as these states have appreciated the content of DHAMAAL 4 more. Both films are in a similar zone and for comedies to really fire, Mumbai circuit has been of utmost importance not just today but since films started being made.
The fact that more comedies started being made from the beginning of this century is down to Mumbai circuit getting bigger with the faster deployment of multiplexes in this circuit compared to other circuits. The victory of DHAMAAL 4 is scoring well in Mumbai/Gujarat, especially the latter, as its hard to tell which film will go which here post pandemic with even comedy films not outperforming like they used to. What is outperforming is films from the South but lets see how long that will last.
