This boost followed a relatively slow Tuesday, thanks to partial holidays across the country and the excitement of a long weekend just around the corner. This timely lift has helped the film stay afloat at a point when many others start to lose momentum. With ₹27 crore coming in during its second week alone, it’s clear that the film has benefited from holiday crowds and positive word-of-mouth among family audiences.
Looking at the day-by-day trend, Jolly LLB 3 had a solid start, kicking off with ₹12 crore on Day 1 and hitting a high of nearly ₹20 crore on Day 3. The weekdays that followed saw expected dips, but the film still managed to attract steady audiences. The second weekend showed a nice uptick again, with collections ranging from ₹7 crore to ₹6.75 crore on Saturday and Sunday. Although the weekdays in Week 2 brought in smaller numbers—between ₹2.50 and ₹4 crore—the consistency has kept the film on track to reach that three-digit milestone.
By the end of Day 13, the total stands at ₹97 crore nett in India. The movie is set to cross ₹100 crore any moment now, but the real test is just beginning. With new big releases like Kantara: Chapter 1 and Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari hitting theaters, Jolly LLB 3’s screen share is likely to shrink. This means the third week could see a sharper decline, making it tougher for the film to maintain strong daily numbers.

For Akshay Kumar, this is somewhat of a relief. The actor has had a mixed bag at the box office over the past couple of years, with several films struggling to make a lasting impact. In that light, Jolly LLB 3 at least puts him back in the ₹100 crore conversation.
In that regard, Jolly LLB 3 has at least managed to bring him back into the ₹100 crore club. But let’s be real—these days, achieving commercial success often requires hitting much higher targets. Industry insiders are saying the film really needed to cross the ₹150 crore mark to be considered a solid hit, which now seems a bit out of reach.
On the bright side, audience reactions have been quite positive. This courtroom drama, filled with quirky humor, satire, and a fresh dynamic between Akshay Kumar and Arshad Warsi, has delivered what fans were hoping for from the franchise. The buzz on social media and support from family audiences have remained strong, which helps explain why the film has managed to hold its ground in its second week.
Looking at the bigger picture, Jolly LLB 3 hasn’t turned out to be a flop. While it might not break any box office records, it has shown enough resilience to carve out a respectable place among the 2025 releases. The next few days will reveal whether it can reach ₹110 crore or if it will settle closer to the ₹100 crore mark. Either way, the film has demonstrated that courtroom comedies still resonate with audiences in India, as long as the content strikes the right balance between fun and relatability.
As the industry gears up for the upcoming festive releases, the journey of Jolly LLB 3 will be an intriguing case study. It highlights how a franchise film can maintain steady numbers, even when up against stiff competition in a busy release window. For now, Akshay Kumar and Arshad Warsi can take solace in the fact that their dramedy has given box office analysts plenty to discuss, landing it just shy of the ₹100 crore milestone.
