The excitement among the fans for the third film of the 'Welcome' franchise titled 'Welcome to the Jungle' has been high ever since the initial announcement of the film last year.

Following, there has been revelation about the actors who are going to be a part of the much-awaited project and the names included Akshay Kumar, Arshad Warsi, Shreays Talpade, Raveena Tandon and Jacqueline Fernandez. 

Now, the latest reports suggest that Jackie Shroff is set to join the star cast and be a part of the film.
 

According to the mention by the source in one of the entertainment websites, "Jackie Shroff has been silently shooting for Welcome To The Jungle ever since Sanjay Dutt’s exit from the film. There is a twist in the tale for Welcome To The Jungle as the makers have reworked on the character traits and re-casted for some parts. While Suniel Shetty will now be playing the role which was initially written for Sanjay Dutt, Jackie Shroff has come on board to play the part that Suniel Shetty had signed on for."

The source further added, “The humour for Suniel’s character comes from his machoism. Jackie, on the other hand, shares a very exciting dynamic with the lead roles, and the film presents him in a completely new avatar. The casting change happened back in December, and Jackie has already shot considerably for his part in the film."

'Welcome to the Jungle' is directed by Ahmed Khan and the shooting is currently on.
