Akshay Kumar and Rajpal Yadav are back in their comic comfort zone, and the latest glimpse from the sets of Welcome To The Jungle is pure controlled chaos. A fresh behind the scenes video from the film has caught attention online, with Akshay using a horse to pull a playful scare on Rajpal, instantly reminding fans why their timing remains such a loved part of Hindi cinema.
The clip dropped on June 5, 2026, and arrived just weeks before the film’s theatrical release on June 26, 2026. For a franchise built on confusion, eccentric characters and oversized comic energy, this candid set moment has worked like the perfect mood setter.
Akshay Kumar And Rajpal Yadav’S Bts Moment Grabs Attention
The video shows Akshay bringing his familiar prankster energy to the set while Rajpal becomes the target of the gag. The moment is not staged like a polished promo. It feels spontaneous, warm and very much in tune with the ensemble madness that the makers have been teasing around the film.
The caption shared with the reel read, “Akshay Kumar brought some jungle style mischief to the sets of #WelcomeToTheJungle as he gave Rajpal Yadav a hilarious scare!”
That line neatly captures the spirit of the clip. Akshay and Rajpal have shared screen space in several comic entertainers over the years, and this BTS video leans into that familiarity without giving away anything from the film’s plot. It sells the atmosphere of the set, which appears playful, crowded and high on energy.
Welcome To The Jungle Brings Back Big Screen Ensemble Comedy
Welcome To The Jungle is the third film in the Welcome comedy franchise, following Welcome in 2007 and Welcome Back in 2015. The new film is directed by Ahmed Khan.
The film features Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty, Paresh Rawal, Arshad Warsi, Jackie Shroff, Raveena Tandon, Disha Patani, Jacqueline Fernandez, Lara Dutta, Johnny Lever, Rajpal Yadav, Shreyas Talpade, Tusshar Kapoor, Aftab Shivdasani, Krushna Abhishek and Kiku Sharda, among several others. Production banners associated with the film include Cape of Good Films, Seeta Films and Base Industries Group.
The premise keeps the franchise’s madcap identity intact, placing a large group of chaotic characters in a jungle based comic adventure where danger and foolishness collide.
