Jolly LLB 3 box office collection day 3: Akshay Kumar, Arshad Warsi’s courtroom comedy crosses Rs 50 cr, 8th highest first weekend earner of 2025

In comparison, it’s clocked in a better domestic opening weekend collection than its predecessor, Jolly LLB 2, which earned around Rs 50 crore in its opening weekend back in 2017. The inaugural film, however, managed to make only Rs 12.35 crore in its opening weekend back in 2013. The threequel may not have gone beyond expectations, but it seems to have met the desired results.

Jolly LLB 3, however, can’t match up to Kumar’s previous release, Tarun Mansukhani’s whodunit comedy Housefull 5 earlier this year. That ensemble film earned Rs 55 crore in just its first two days, even more than what Jolly LLB 3 could make in the first three days of release. But it’s performed better than another release of Kumar this year, Karan Singh Tyagi’s period courtroom drama Kesari: Chapter 2, which collected Rs 27.50 crore in the first three days of release. Kumar’s first release of the year — Sky Force — also earned more than Jolly LLB 3 in the same period. It amassed Rs 65.25 crore in its opening weekend, Rs 10 crore more than what Jolly LLB 3 did.

With its opening weekend, Jolly LLB 3 has surpassed several other releases of the year, including Sonu Sood’s Fateh (Rs 18.87 crore), Kangana Ranaut’s Emergency (Rs 20.48 crore), Shahid Kapoor-starrer Deva (Rs 33.97 crore), Himesh Reshammiya’s Badass Ravi Kumar (Rs 13.78 crore), John Abraham’s The Diplomat (Rs 40.73 crore), Kajol-starrer Maa (Rs 38.63 crore), Rajummar Rao-starrer Maalik (Rs 26.36 crore), Siddhant Chaturvedi-starrer Dhadak 2 (Rs 24.24 crore), and Ajay Devgn’s Son of Sardaar 2 (Rs 47.15 crore).

The next targets of Jolly LLB 3 are Sidharth Malhotra and Janhvi Kapoor-starrer romantic comedy Param Sundari (Rs 54.66 crore) and Anurag Basu’s musical romance Metro… In Dino (Rs 56.30 crore). While Jolly LLB 3 is leaps and bounds ahead of the other Hindi release of the week — Anurag Kashyap’s Nishaanchi (Rs 85 lakh) — it has a good two weeks to add to its box office collection before the October 2 releases.
