Junglee box office collection: Vidyut Jammwal starrer recovered some lost ground on Sunday after it received a muted response on the opening day. It only managed to earn Rs 3.35 crore on Friday and Rs 4.45 crore on Saturday, which was over 30 percent jump. On Sunday, Hollywood filmmaker Chuck Russell directorial recovered further, collecting Rs 6.05 crore at the box office.

This is Russell's debut Hindi film. The increase in collection on the second and third days may be due to positive word of mouth. The action-adventure film received rave reviews and applause from the audience. The family action film has captured the fancy of children with its animal theme.
