Akshay Kumar and Arshad Warsi's movie Jolly LLB 3 kicked off with a robust start, surpassing Rs 12 crore on its initial day at the box office.
In the realm of Bollywood, the legal comedy drama, Jolly LLB 3, has made its mark, with its release on September 19. The film, starring Akshay Kumar, Arshad Warsi, Saurabh Shukla, Huma Qureshi, Amrita Rao, Gajraj Rao, Ram Kapoor, and Seema Biswas, has been well-received by both critics and audiences.
The film, set against the backdrop of a social issue concerning land acquisition by industrialists and farmers' protests, offers a unique blend of humour and drama. Jolly LLB 3 is a full-bodied laughter ride, as described by Outlook India, with well-placed punchlines delivered by Akshay Kumar and Arshad Warsi with uncanny precision.
The role of the lawyer Huma Qureshi in the film was expertly played by Huma Qureshi herself. The film stirs a logical debate: no progress without sacrifice, adding depth to its comedic elements.
On its opening day, Jolly LLB 3 collected approximately Rs 12.50 crore at the box office, surpassing the opening day collections of Akshay Kumar's previous releases such as Kesari Chapter 2 and Sky Force. However, it has not been able to surpass the opening day collection of Housefull 5.
The attendance for Jolly LLB 3's night shows was higher than the morning shows, with a difference of 29.17%. This trend is expected to continue for the next two weeks, as the film has received positive reviews and word-of-mouth is favourable.
More screens and shows might be added for Jolly LLB 3 on Saturdays and Sundays, as the collections of the film might see a boost on these days. The film currently has no major competition till October 2.
The theatre occupancy of Jolly LLB 3 on Friday was around 22.40%. Netizens have also praised the film, as indicated in a review by Garima Das. The film's heart-wrenching conflict, centred on the farmer protests, raises sharper questions than before.
As Jolly LLB 3 continues its run at the box office, it promises to provide a unique cinematic experience, blending laughter with thought-provoking social issues.
