According to a report by Hindustan Times, Ajay Devgn reportedly spoke to Akshay Kumar, and following mutual discussions, the makers decided to shift the release of Dhamaal 4 from July 4 to July 17, 2026.
With Welcome To The Jungle scheduled to release on June 26, 2026, the change is expected to provide both films with a better release window and help avoid a major box office clash. Moreover, both projects are multi-starrer family comedy entertainers.
Reportedly, a source quoted by the publication stated that Ajay and Akshay had been friends for a long time, even before they became massive stars. The source further added that both actors also produced films apart from acting and understood the importance of giving every film sufficient breathing space. Hence, the discussion reportedly went smoothly, and they mutually agreed that audiences would need a gap between the two comedy films.
Dhamaal 4 brings the comedy franchise back to life once again, with core cast members Ajay Devgn, Riteish Deshmukh, Arshad Warsi, Sanjay Mishra, and Jaaved Jaaferi returning to reprise their roles. Moreover, actors Esha Gupta, Sanjeeda Shaikh, Anjali Anand, Upendra Limaye, Ravi Kishan, and others have joined the cast in new roles.
On the other hand, Welcome To The Jungle, led by Akshay Kumar, is also a multi-starrer featuring Suniel Shetty, Jackie Shroff, Raveena Tandon, Disha Patani, Jacqueline Fernandez, Arshad Warsi, Paresh Rawal, Rajpal Yadav, Johnny Lever, Lara Dutta, Shreyas Talpade, Tusshar Kapoor, and others in key roles.
