Plot Summary of Welcome To The Jungle
The narrative of Welcome To The Jungle revolves around a group of aspiring actors who are lured by the promise of a multi-crore film, which is actually destined for failure. The production, falsely presented as a Rs 2000 crore project, is set in a real jungle with the inhabitants of a village called Azadgarh. As the actors come to realize that the film's terrorists are genuine, the entire premise of the movie shifts dramatically.
