Welcome (Hindi: वेलकम) is a 2007 Indian masalacomedy film directed by Anees Bazmee and produced by Firoz A. Nadiadwala & Ronnie Screwvala under the banner of UTV Motion Pictures. The film features a large ensemble cast of Akshay Kumar, Anil Kapoor, Nana Patekar, Katrina Kaif, Paresh Rawal, Malika Sherawat and Feroz Khan in his last film appearance, whilst Sunil Shetty makes a guest appearance and Malaika Arora Khan appears in an item number.
Welcome released worldwide on 21 December 2007, to mixed critical reviews and despite initial competition from Taare Zameen Par, was a strong financial success at the box office both in India and overseas. The film's climax scene is said to be inspired from the Charlie Chaplin movie, The Gold Rush.
Uday (Nana Patekar), a criminal don, takes it upon himself to get his kindhearted sister, Sanjana (Katrina Kaif) married, but he is unsuccessful since no one wants to be associated with a crime family. Dr. Ghunghroo (Paresh Rawal) has also been trying to get his nephew, Rajiv (Akshay Kumar), married but due to his condition—the alliance must be with a purely decent family—he is also unsuccessful.

Genres: Thriller,Welcome baby boy to a brand new world
May the tears fall like a rainstorm from your eyes
Looks like life kinda took you by surprise
You're so tiny that it scares me
Your nakedness just stares at me
And I never thought my head could spin so high
Welcome baby boy, don't look so confused
One day I'll try to sit down and explain
That the love that brought you here will never change
You're so helpless that it shakes me
Yet so charged with life you make me
So happy that I think, I'm gonna cry
Life has come to greet you child
Play it safe, play it wild reach for the truth
You're on the rules beyond the games
Life is yours and yours along
Free to settle, free to roam
Free to grow and free to change
Or free to fight to stay the same
Welcome baby boy to a brand new world
May the tears fall like a rainstorm from your eyes
Looks like life kinda took you by surprise
