Jolly LLB 3, starring Akshay Kumar and Arshad Warsi, recorded a strong box office performance over its opening weekend, earning a total of Rs 53.50 crore after three days. The film’s day-wise collections were Rs 12.5 crore on Friday, Rs 20 crore on Saturday, and Rs 21 crore on Sunday, marking a 68% jump from the first day to the third day.This performance places Jolly LLB 3 as the biggest opening weekend in the Jolly LLB franchise, surpassing the previous installments where Jolly LLB 2 had earned around Rs 50 crore, and the original Jolly LLB had made Rs 12.35 crore in their opening weekends respectively. The positive word-of-mouth and family audience support are credited for driving strong footfalls.
The film enjoys a somewhat clear run this week due to the absence of major Hindi releases until October 2, when Kantara Chapter 1 and Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari are scheduled to release, potentially posing competition[2]. Trade analyst Taran Adarsh commented that while Sunday’s collections could have been higher, they were impacted by the India-Pakistan cricket match in the evening. Still, the film is considered in a strong position and is expected to maintain good numbers during the weekdays ahead.
In summary:
| Day | Box Office Collection (Rs crore) |
|---|---|
| Friday | 12.5 |
| Saturday | 20 |
| Sunday | 21 |
| Total | 53.50 |
