According to BoxofficeIndia report, “The film has fared better in the states of Bihar and CP Berar. It has fetched a good 24 crore from satellite and digital so a 15-16 crore theatrical share will take it very close to recovery.” Junglee tells the unique tale of a friendship between a man and a herd of elephants. Jammwal, who made a breakthrough debut in John Abraham-starrer action drama Force, plays Ashwath. His character confronts an international poacher’s racket at an elephant reserve. Produced by Vineet Jain and co-produced by Priti Shahani, the film was released on 29 March.
