The promotional campaign for the massive multi-starrer comedy Welcome to the Jungle has taken a wild, high-energy detour. After generating a polarized response with its initial teaser and title track, the makers have struck internet gold with their latest musical drop, titled “Ghis Ghis Ghis.”
Infusing mainstream Bollywood with raw, unadulterated Bhojpuri flavor, the track pairs Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar with Bhojpuri cinema sensation Akshara Singh in a high-octane dance face-off that has completely taken over social media.
Composed by the dynamic Vikram Montrose, who also lends his vocals alongside singer Supriyaa Paathak, “Ghis Ghis Ghis” is a proper, unapologetic regional dance anthem. The track embraces the genre’s classic traits, featuring tongue-in-cheek, cheeky lyrics paired with an aggressively infectious rhythm designed for the single-screen theaters of North India.
The Ganesh Acharya Touch: Visualizing the chaotic energy of the track is legendary choreographer Ganesh Acharya. Known for his expertise in crafting viral hook-steps, Acharya pushes both Akshay and Akshara to their absolute limits, delivering a high-tempo routine that blends mass-appealing expressions with relentless physical comedy.
Netizens React: ‘UP, Bihar, Aur Delhi Ke Theaters Fatenge!’
While initial glimpses of the film were heavily critiqued as “brain-rot entertainment,” the organic regional touch of the new single has turned the tide of public opinion on X (formerly Twitter). Fans from the Hindi heartland have flooded digital spaces to praise the unexpected collaboration, commending Akshay Kumar’s legendary flexibility and comic timing alongside Akshara’s flawless, high-energy expressions.
“Bawaal song hai! The dance and expressions are filled with pure, unfiltered energy,” one widely shared tweet read. Another excited fan predicted a box-office riot in northern circuits, tweeting, “Fire mode is officially on! Theater fatega UP, Bihar, aur Delhi walo se. This is pure single-screen gold.” Even neutral viewers admitted that the unapologetic Bhojpuri touch has made the film’s campy aesthetic far more engaging and fun.
A 30-Actor Ensemble Chasing Box-Office Glory
The positive momentum generated by “Ghis Ghis Ghis” arrives as a major relief for the production house, considering the monumental scale of the project. Directed as a massive comic caper, Welcome to the Jungle boasts an unprecedented ensemble of nearly 30 prominent actors, bringing together heritage comedy stars like Suniel Shetty, Paresh Rawal, Johnny Lever, Rajpal Yadav, and Arshad Warsi, alongside a stellar female roster including Raveena Tandon, Lara Dutta, Jacqueline Fernandez, and Disha Patani.
Following multiple production delays and scheduling reshuffles, the film is locked and loaded for a grand worldwide theatrical release next month on June 26, 2026. With Akshay Kumar coming hot off the box-office success of his horror-comedy hit Bhooth Bangla, all eyes are now on this star-studded jungle adventure to see if it can convert viral musical trends into a massive summer blockbuster.
