Breaking his silence on not continuing the iconic role of Uday Shetty, he said, ” Maybe I have become too old and jaded and that’s why they didn’t cast me for Welcome 3″. Further, he also took a jibe at the makers of Welcome 3 and said, “Maybe, the makers of The Vaccine War don’t feel the same about me and that’s why they have roped me in. It’s that simple.”
He also commented upon his career break from the industry and said, “The industry will never shut its door on you if you want to do good work. ” He confidently added, “People will keep coming to you and offer you parts if you want to keep working hard. You need to know if you want to do a role.” Additionally, he also said, “I look at every film as my first and last chance. Everyone gets a chance, it’s up to them whether you want to do it or not.”
Starcast of Welcome To The Jungle
Meanwhile to let our readers know the makers of the Welcome series have announced the third part. And the name of the upcoming comedy-drama is Welcome to the Jungle. Akshay Kumar will continue as the main lead. He was the main lead of the first movie. Then, the deal couldn’t happen for Welcome 2. Hence, John Abrahim played the main lead character.
Additionally, makers have signed some more strong artists to bring weightage to the project. And the most important of them are Arshad Warsi and Sanjay Dutt. Paresh Rawal continues in the third chapter as well. Moreover, Raveena Tandon and Lara Dutta as well have been finalised. And, other star cast includes Johnny Lever, Tusshar Kapoor, Rajpal Yadav, Shreyas Talpade, Krushna Abhishek, Kiku Sharda, Daler Mehndi, Mika Singh, Rahul Dev, Mukesh Tiwari, Sharib Hashmi, Inaamulhaq, Zakir Hussain, and Yashpal Sharma as supporting cast.
Both Nana Patekar and Anil Kapoor played pivotal roles in Welcome. They again reprised the same characters of Uday Shetty and Manju Shetty in Welcome Back. But they both bid goodbye to the project in the third instalment. But both the characters were favourites and iconic among the audience. Either the script is completely new or it was the creative differences that made artists to part ways with the project.
But as per the statement of Nana Patekar, the makers never approached him. The third chapter of Welcome is named Welcome To The Jungle. Also, Jyoti Deshpande and Firoz A Nadiawala are the joint producers.
Let us see if Welcome To The Jungle or Welcome 3 will create the same magic at the box office as welcome and welcome back.
